Noodleboro Cooperative Games for
Kids
I just love games that have a
valuable message and are fun to boot! They allow for
family fun NOT spent in front of the tube and we can
teach our kids valuable social skills at the same
time.
Noodleboro has 3 such games that
are geared towards younger kids and they are a hit in
our house!
Learning to Share Fun Park
Game
The actual game consists of carnival rides and
activities….a log ride, a Ferris wheel, a roller coaster,
and circus tent. You roll a die to find out what ride you
need to do and then if you “win” you get a specific token.
Example: You win the log ride by balancing a ball on a
forked twig while it goes through a maze… if you get the
ball out without letting it fall, you win. Each ride has a
specific token and each player has to get all their
tokens before the park closes. The cooperation comes in
because often you have to do the same rides more than once
and you may get extra tokens that other players don’t have.
Since everyone loses if you can’t get out before closing
time it gives you incentive to share your tokens with other
players and get sharing stars in return.
