Number Slide Game
By Constance Sharp
A quick and easy fun game/craft project to make in class or as a take home assignment.
What you need:
- eight metal or plastic lids
- scissors
- construction paper
- ruler
- glue
- markers
- poster board
- large envelope
How to make it:
- Clean and dry eight metal or plastic lids.
- In the center of each lid, glue a circle of paper. Number the lids from 1 to 8.
- From poster board, cut a square slightly longer on each side than three of the lids placed side by side.
- Use a marker to divide the square into nine small squares.
- To play the game, place the numbered lids on the small squares in any order, leaving one square empty. Then slide a lid into the empty square. Continue sliding numbers, one at a time, into empty squares. Any number next to an empty square may be moved into it. The object of the game is to rearrange all of the lids so they're in numerical order.
- Store the game board and lids in a large envelope.
