Help your Reception child develop mathematical thinking through a fun strategy game.
Race to the Trophy is a two-player game that encourages children to make decisions about whether to add, remove or keep the same number of cubes as they race towards the finish. As they work towards each checkpoint, they'll practise predicting what might happen, reasoning about their choices and adapting their strategy when things don't go to plan.
Simple to set up and easy to play again and again, you'll receive a parent-friendly guide with clear instructions, practical learning tips and ideas to extend the play as your child's confidence grows. You'll also receive a printable game board, ready to use with a dice, two counters and cubes or other small objects.
