13. Supporting your child at home
Multiplication War (for 2 players)
Take out the picture cards, then deal half the deck to each of the players then place them face down in front of you
Turn over the top card of your piles at the same time
The first to say the correct multiplication wins both cards.
The winner is the first to win both cards

14. Supporting your child at home
Pile it on (for 2 or more players)
On a player's turn, they roll the die twice. Their first roll indicates how many piles they must make. Their second roll tells how many cards to place face down in each pile
The player will then create those piles, add up the number of cards used (either by counting them or by using multiplication), and record their score.
Play for ten rounds. The person who uses the most cards total is the winner.

15. Supporting your child at home
Card games and counting games (e.g. Snakes & Ladders, Ludo and any dice games)
Recognising numbers and sequences when out and about (e.g. house numbers-odds and evens, bus numbers, car number plates etc.)
Recognising shapes (e.g. buildings, windows, food packaging etc.)
Helping in the kitchen (e.g. weighing ingredients, time duration, volume of liquids etc.)

16. Supporting your child at home
Helping in the supermarket (e.g. paying and change, weighed fruit and vegetables, calculating better value etc.)
CDs/Games for learning times tables
