GAMES FOR LEARNING

If you have an active child, or a kinestic learner, you will need to use games for much of your teaching.  Here is a list of sites with games, advice from Moms about games that have worked for them, and other information about games for kids.  Please remember, they don't have to be in front of a book in order to learn.  Games are a great way to have fun, take a break when they get resistant, and to continue their education all at the same time.

Angelfire has a great site for games, this would be considered a directory it has so many on there.

If your kids are into Puzzles, this site has a great builder, free online or you can purchase the cd for your computer.

Ever heard of File Folder Games?  Great site with various games on it.  These are great for trips.

Here is a great site for younger kids, lots of crafts to keep those hands busy.

If you get a box of card stock at Sam's or Office Depot, here are great printable card games.

And of course, printable and/or hand art board games you can make.

Then there is HomeWorkOpoly.  More of a challenge to make, but looks like lots of fun.

Hamster Tic Tac Toe for the younger ones.

Here is another directory, that is it has more links of activities and games for your kids.
