Games

The Center for Early Education in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math is proud to offer games appropriate for children ages 3-8.  Please check back as more games will be added often.

These games can be printed on letter size paper and laminated for classroom use.  Losing cards or damaging a gameboard doesn't mean the end of the game-- simply print a new copy and you're ready to go.

Many games are discussed in the book Young children Reinvent Arithmetic:  Implications of Piaget's Theory, 2nd edition by Constance Kamii with Leslie Baker Housman.

The Regents' Center for Early Developmental Education at the University of Northern Iowa is proud to bring parents and children of all ages Tapatan, the game of three in a row that is NOT Tic-Tac-Toe. More spatial reasoning, more challenging logic, more strategy, more perspective-taking, more FUN! Tapatan is available free of charge for use on the Apple iPad, iTouch, and iPhone.
