Stuck in a queue

Standing still with nothing to do and a child losing patience.

Tell us how old your child is and we will put what suits them first.

How old is your child?
Nothing here yet

This moment has no published games against it yet. A real gap rather than a broken page, and it is on the curation list.

The catalogue is still small, so here is what there is.

  • A basket of real things

    Fill a basket with ordinary household objects and let them investigate, with you alongside rather than directing.

    6-20 months Things you definitely have Five or ten minutes

    51
  • Household objects to handle

    A step on from the basket: bangles, rings, tins and tubes that stack, post, nest and rattle.

    9 months to 2.5 years Things you definitely have Twenty minutes or more

  • What's the time, Mr Wolf?

    One person is the wolf with their back turned. Everyone else creeps closer by asking the time, until the wolf says dinner time and chases.

    3.5 to 7 years Nothing at all Five or ten minutes

    101
  • Duck, duck, goose

    Everyone sits in a circle. One walks round tapping heads saying duck, until they say goose, and then there is a chase.

    3.5 to 7 years Nothing at all Five or ten minutes
