Set up: Grab the LEGO game board template at Homeschooling on a Dime. (I laminated it because I knew it’d get a lot of use in our home.) Then, collect a stash of 2×2 (square) LEGO pieces and have each child find a minifigure.
Instructions: Child answers memory work question and then gets to roll a die (or spin a spinner if you have one). Move the number of spaces and follow the instructions on the space you land on (remove or add LEGOs to the stack underneath the minifigure). Child with tallest tower at the end wins.
For class play: In a classroom setting, you might consider setting up teams or pairing up students, although 7 or 8 minifigures may be able to roam the board just fine. You should be able to make it through about the same number of questions that you normally do during a 30-minute review time, but the board was a bit short for us to make it through six weeks of review questions (mainly because we kept rolling sixes). So… we just went back to start and kept going until we ran out of questions.
As you can see from the looks on these faces, Levi won the first round. Nevertheless, it was a hit across the board!
