Question Games 9-Game Combo
Question Games — 9-Game Combo
TARGET GROUP: 4 to 8 years
Delightful illustrations make these Wh-question games a must-have for SLPs, parents, and teachers. Each game is played by rolling a die and moving around a pathway set against a colorful background. Reward and penalty spaces add surprises such as a lost turn or an extra roll. Funny characters that appeal to young children, like Miss Muffet, Purple Murple, and the Three Bears, cavort in the background, encouraging spontaneous language.
