Hungry Multiple Hippos 🦛

Hungry Multiple Hippos 🦛

Aim of the Game:

This game is a simple twist on the game hungry hippos, helping children to add and learn their times tables.

What do you need?

  • The game Hungry Hippos
  • Whiteboard and pen or paper and pen

How to Play:

🦛 Make each ball worth a particular number

🦛 Once the game is played, instead of counting how many you have normally, players have to add in the chosen number, therefore helping them with their times table knowledge. (For example they pick the 3 times table and had 7 balls then their total would be 28.)

🦛 A simple addition but might make the game a bit more challenging for older children. I’ve also included the yellow ball as -7 so that players can practise adding and subtracting in the chosen number.
