Here’s how to play Big Bad Mouse! • Print, laminate and cut out all of the cards. • If you want to do it weekly print the cards which you want to consolidate and add each week as you go. • 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 “Big Bad Mouse” card then he/she must give back all of the cards and place back in the forest!! 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!

Shuffle the cards Each player needs a baseboard (Dog and bowl) Place the bones face down Each player takes it in turn to turn over a bone Read the word, if it is read correctly player keeps the card. If not return to bottom of the pile. Watch out for HOT DOGS! If you turn this card you have to return all the bones in your bowl to the dog biscuit box. Play continues until all the bones are used. They winner is the player with the most bones!
