here’s how to play Hot Potato! • Print, laminate and cut out all of the cards. There are over 70 word cards! • Bundle them into a deck of cards and shuffle. • Turn the cards face down on the table. Children take it in turns to turn over the top card. • If the child can read it then he/she can keep it. • If a child gets the “Hot Potato” card then he/she must give back all of the cards!! The winner is the person with the most cards at the end of the game. We also have a mat where the returned cards go rather than back into the pile to make the game shorter!

I made these for the classroom last year as we lead up to the Phonics screen. The KIDS loved them... i had to make sets to send home! idea of the game. Each child / player has a base card and the alien cards are placed faced down in the middle of the table. take it in turns to turn over. If you have the red alien, find the red sound you base card. if you find and say it colour it in, place the alien back in play. game continues until we have completed the row of four- or in our case until they coloured in every sound!! it was well loved. thought you may like to buy and use it too x

Print out the cards. laminate the caterpillars and the butterflies- cut the butterflies in half. cana the children match the right half to form a word that matches the post it note held by the caterpillar. It could be played like a memory game. The caterpillar cards shared out amongst the players and the butterfly cards face down. of course these can also be used for sand play too!
