This game is designed to help youngsters identify quantities, understand the concept of more or less and to develop subitizing skills (where we look at a number of objects and can tell the number without counting each one individually).

We have designed this game so the same question is asked each time, making this a good game for youngsters just beginning to learn about more or less comparisons.

You will see in this game the objects are randomly positioned each time and different cupcake and monster graphics are displayed, making this a fun and engaging game which can be played repeatedly.

Tips for playing this more or less game:

• The number of objects displayed vary from 1 – 10, therefore some combinations will be easier than others. Comparing 2 to 10, for example will be easier than comparing 9 to 10. Encourage young ones to think about when they need to count to tell the difference and when they can recognize the difference by appearance.
• This is a race against the clock! Try to beat your previous score.
• Follow the game with some real world examples, for example identifying comparing whether there are more or less of specific types of objects around the house.

This game is designed to help young learners develop key comparison skills that help them recognize whether a group of objects is greater than or less than another. This game will also help build on counting skills and subitizing.

The objects are arranged in lines of three in this game to help make the recognition of numbers easier. Players may be able to tell which has more or less by looking rather than counting.

Tips for playing this game:

• The objects are random each time so some will be easy to compare by sight, others may need to be counted to identify which has more/less
• Different dogs and cats appear each time to help engage the player.
• Remember, you are playing against the clock in this game!
