Roll the Ball: Players take turns rolling the ball around the cereal box, aiming to land the ball in one of the holes.
Read the Time: Once the ball lands in a hole, players identify the time closest to where the ball landed by reading the label on the box.
Match the Clock: Players then search for the milk bottle top with the clock face representing the same time and place it in the corresponding hole on the cereal box.
Continue the Game: Players take turns rolling the ball, reading the times, and matching clock faces until all the clocks have been correctly matched with their corresponding times.
Winning Strategy: The primary objective of “Time Roll” is to successfully match all the clock faces with their corresponding times labelled on the cereal box. There’s no specific winning condition other than completing the game and reinforcing understanding of telling time.
