Go catch!
- Using a beanbag, soft toy or ball, in pairs or a family group, stand in a circle
- Throw the item to the person next to you and say a number e.g. 3
- Then throw the item to the next person who also says another number e.g. 4
- Then throw the item to the next person who completes the sum e.g. 3 x 4 = 12!
As with any activity consider the space e.g. may need to move tables and chairs
Remember!
