“FREE” box? What a lovely game. Thank you. Indoor Game for day 1 sorted 🙂

The FREE box allows all the children to cross out a square before they even begin the game. This helps them to complete a row of boxes (either horizontally, vertically or diagonally). So glad to hear that you have your first day back sorted, Zuriette!

Could pictures be added to the writing to make it easier for kids who struggle to read? Otherwise a great activity and formatted well.
