Do Zoo Game
Tell where the animals live. This zoo contains people, elephants, camels, snakes and giraffes. Each assignment card indicates a position where the people and the animals are located. One side of the assignment card and the associated game board has accommodations on them, and the other side a matrix grid.
Two children are sitting opposite each other. They choose an assignment card and give each other verbal instructions, such as: "Place the giraffe on the grass at the top left of the game board." Both children place the giraffe on the map. Or: "Place two elephants on red 3". Both children place the elephants on the matrix board. Develop visual memory, auditory discrimination, insight into spatial relationships and logical thinking. Ages 3yrs+.
