Number of players: 2-unlimited
Print off one set of cards. (link below)
Take a plain piece of paper to use as the score sheet. Create columns
with each player’s name at the top.
Teachers: Cut the cards. Give each student some of the cards and
have them color the numbers.
Parents: Cut the cards. Give each player a small stack of cards
and have them color them.
Play Instructions: Create the score sheet. Have the players sit
in a circle. Place the stack of number cards face down. Have the oldest
player be the moderator who will turn over the cards and also say
“Go”. Tell the players that when the moderator says “go”
everyone, including the moderator, is to hold out 1 – 5 fingers. Using
just one hand. They just take their hand, put out however many fingers
they want and hold their hand in front where everyone can see. Once all
players have their hands, with the chosen number of fingers out, then
the moderator turns over the top card. Whoever who is showing the same
number of fingers as the number on the card gets a point. The moderator
keeps track of the score on a plain piece of paper. Place the first card
in a discard pile and say “Go” and have all the players hold out
their hand again with a chosen number of fingers showing. Turn over the
next card. Continue doing the same thing until all of the cards have
been turned over.
How to win: The player with the highest number of points is the
winner.
