Top Totals
This is a game for two or more players
and you will need a pack of cards.
In this game:
• Aces count as one.
• Jacks, Queens and Kings are not needed and can be
removed from the deck.
How to play
1. Place a pile of cards, face down, in the
centre of the table.
2. Deal two cards to each player.
3. Players should add their two numbers and
share the total with the other players,
e.g. 9 + 3 = 12
4. The player with the highest total scores one
point and the cards are returned to the
bottom of the pile.
If any players have the same ‘top total’, they
score one point each.

Penguin Peril!
-3 Can you help Paddy rescue his chick
by counting back from 0 to -75?
You will need:
-2 +2 -5
• Two counters
You will also need a copy of the game board, a set of questions and a die.
The Bee team should help the two Bees (Boris and Beth) reach each other by creating a
connection of touching yellow hexagons from left to right across the board. The Fleas
(Fred and Florence) need to complete a connection of red hexagons from the top of the
board to the bottom.
How to Play
1) Both teams should roll a die. The team with the highest score goes first.
2) The winning team chooses a hexagon from the grid and tells Quentin the letter shown
on it. Quentin should then read a question whose answer begins with that letter.
• If the team answers correctly, they can colour the hexagon using their team’s
colour (yellow for bees and red for fleas).
• If the team answers incorrectly, the other team are given a chance to answer the
question and ‘steal’ it.
• If nobody can answer the question, Quentin the
Quizmaster should choose another question
whose answer begins with the same letter. The first
team to answer correctly ‘wins’ that hexagon and
colours it.
3) The other team chooses the next letter and play
continues in this way.
