Apple Picking
A missing numbers game which focuses on numbers from 0 to 20. Children are presented with a series of numbers and have to select the apple to find the missing number.
Grover's Winter Games
This game is probably suitable more for use at home than at school. It has three parts. The first has number to 15 number recognition activities, the second has shape patterns to complete and the third tests a child's ability to follow instructions.
Pattern Shapes
Try making patterns, tessellations or pictures with shapes. Explore geometry and fractions or investigate symmetry. Great for demonstrating protractors and measuring angles in shapes.

Fun, games and colouring from children's BBC. Young children will recognise their favourite characters. The games are great fun and they can help your child learn.
Santa Claus Christmas Games
Discover Santa's world. There is an online Advent calendar with activities, colouring pages, Christmas screensavers to download and crafts. It's great!
