It’s chutes and ladders... but not as you know it, kiddo! This is a game for two or more players. Here's how to play:
- Find a die and use pennies as counters.
- Move around the board doing the tasks as you go. Too easy.
- Bounce up when you land on an inflatable and slide down the pool noodles (just like Chutes & Ladders). The first player to 100 is the winner!
Grab a friend to play this holiday WHOliday game! Here's how to play:
- Snip out the game boards.
- Pick a game board and sit opposite your friend. Make sure you can’t see each other’s boards.
- Choose and circle a character each, then take turns asking "yes" or "no" questions back and forth with your friend to work out who you’ve each chosen. Cross off the characters that don’t match your questions, and guess who they’ve picked!
Top Tip: Use a pencil so you can erase and play over and over again.
One primary school is ditching tired, old assignments for more creative, interactive projects like baking a cake or designing a board game. Students choose from a number of options and say they are less stressed and spend more time with their families as a result. This video is excerpted from BBC News.

Not that Bingo — Bingo the game! Take two secs to make it and play with a pal. Here's how the game works:
1. Ask a grown-up to cut out the pictures below and put them in a bag... or a hat if you can’t find a bag... or a bowl if you can’t find a hat...
2. Choose a bingo board, then sit opposite your friend and take it in turns to pull out a picture from the bag.
3. If it matches a picture on your board, place it on top. If it doesn’t, pop it back in the bag.
4. First person with all eight pictures on their bingo board shouts, "BINGO!"
In Protecting Raja Ampat’s Ecosystem, Simon explores Raja Ampat, a marine paradise with over 2,000 fish species and coral reefs. While exploring, marine rangers board Simon’s boat to check permits and ensure no one is breaking the law in this protected area. The rangers share their vital work, like stopping illegal fishing of sea turtles and baby sharks which harms the ecosystem. New laws are a game-changer, saving Raja Ampat from the devastation caused by overfishing just a few decades ago. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Wilderness With Simon Reeve, an epic adventure into the heart of Earth’s last great wild areas, where nature is at its most beautiful and fragile.
Let’s catch the bus to... the museum. (But only because you’re secretly in love with the bus driver!) Here's how to play:
1. Try to get around the board without the grannies causing too much chaos!
2. Grab a counter* (or two, if you’re playing with a friend) and place it on the start. *A button or small toy work well!
3. Take turns rolling a die and moving the number of steps you roll. Be prepared for granny stops! The first one to the end wins.
Right, chooks, let’s play shops! First customer to the finish with all their bits & bobs, wins. Here's how to play:

2. Ask a grown-up to snip everything out. The bits and bobs go to the shopkeeper, then share the dollarbucks between the customers.
3. Customers take turns to roll a die and move around the board. If you land on something you like, buy it... but if you don’t have enough money, you gotta put something back!
