Learning Resources Crocodile Hop Floor Game - Early Maths

Hop into learning! This game gets kids up and moving their bodies while challenging cognitive skills! Young kids have a hard time staying still and this game is perfect to reinforce learning while hopping, jumping, reaching, and playing. Active play gets muscles involved in the learning and movement is an effective way to learn. When kids jump and hop, they feel it in their muscles. When they use their bodies to learn, muscle memory supports cognitive development. Kids learn best when they combine mind and body. So take full advantage and help kids jump and hop their way to learn basic fundamentals of shapes, colours, and numbers.

Roll the inflatable dice to reveal a colour shape or number and then skip, hop, or jump to the corresponding space on the floor mat. Place a marker down and move out of the way for the next player’s turn. The first one to get across the river wins! Playing together with friends helps children learn how to interact with one another. The mat is extra-long, giving plenty of space, yet playing on the same path leads room for negotiation, turn-taking, and learning how to share.
