How To Play
There are two ways to play the Game – Independent and group play
Independent Play
The child rolls the Dice and then covers the matching number on their mat with a small object. Continue rolling and covering until all the numbers on the mat are covered.
Group Play
Two players or more take turns and play to see who covers the most numbers! The game ends when all the numbers are covered and the player with the most cover is the winner.
This adds an element of friendly competition and excitement.
This simple game is a fantastic way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day while reinforcing essential math skills. Download your free printable mats today and let the rolling and covering fun begin!
