How to use it

Cut out the cards and pawns and find a counter for each player. Take turns and read each space out loud before moving. It is pitched at the expected level for Kindergarten to Grade 2, for practice after the skill has been taught. Its 2 pages split well across two sittings.

There is no separate answer key; talk through the answers together when it is done.

Tip for grown-ups: Play the first round together and talk through each space before moving.

Done on paper? A grown-up can record it on the child's page in PlayOwl; downloading alone doesn't count as finished.
