Description
In Spinnershapes, you’re racing across a board to reach the finish line first. How (far) you’re allowed to move each turn, however, is decided by the spinner. They act like dice: you give it a spin, and the option that ends on top is the one you must choose.
Is it all luck, then? Of course not! You decide which spinner you want to use. And each one is a different basic shape with a different number of sides, which changes your probability of getting a certain outcome. Through extremely simple rules, this game tests color knowledge, shape knowledge, and adds intuition for probability and strategy.
Oh, and the tactile element of spinners creates a tactile game that will keep children engaged.
Because color is a major part of the game, printing in color is pretty much required. Double-sided printing is not supported, because it’s recommended to glue the spinners onto cardboard/thick paper anyway, and use other household items to assemble the smoothest possible spinner!

Subject: Mathematics
The curriculum is split into six main subjects that align with your typical school subjects.
This resource is part of the Mathematics subject. Below is a summary:
This subject teaches Mathematics from first principles to calculus. Level 1 explores the basic skills needed before you do any counting or see any numbers (such as grouping and comparing objects). Level 2(+) can then introduce numbers, counting, addition, multiplication, and more.
Faction: Gamiverses
This resource is part of the Gamiverses Faction.
But that's just one way to teach and explore its topic(s)!
You can always move to a different Faction to find a more effective way to teach the same topic.
Played a quiz? Try a game! Played a game? Try an escape room! And so on.
For example,
Charm: Board Game
This product is part of the Board Game charm.
Visit its main page to learn more about what that means. Below is a summary:
Board Games are simply physical games (as opposed to video games). They could be played using cards, without a board, with players physically moving around, anything.
Our board games follow the rule that your first game should only require a single page of setup + rules. Most of them are cooperative multiplayer experiences.
Spell: My First Shapes
This resource is part of the My First Shapes topic (or "spell").
Just like colors, shapes provide an easy way to categorize the world around us and break it into smaller parts. This helps understand the world better: now you can explicitly ask your parents for the square thing, for example. It also enables teaching crucial skills such as grouping and combining later.
