There are many ways to use your Education Cubes to help little ones with identifying numbers and color matching in a fun, engaging way! For example, your learner could play this super cute, hands-on game by using the Cupcakes and Candles insert cards along with the Cupcakes and Candles game board! This game and the insert cards were created as part of the Birthday Bash celebration at Spell Outloud.
Activity Instructions: Follow the cupcake path to help get each candle to its cupcake by rolling the cube and marking off cupcakes along the path. Continue until all of the cupcakes have been marked off! Select either the color or number insert cards and game board.
The Cupcakes and Candles game can be used at a birthday bash for little ones as a fun party game with “hidden” educational value! Or, use it along with a birthday themed learning unit.
Download the game board here.
