A step-by-step guide to play the game
1
We divide the children into two groups.
2
Each child gets a number from 5 to 10. Depending on the number of children, you can add add tens to the initial number.
3
Inform children that the bottle caps correspond to 1.
4
The street worker shouts a number (ex. 27) and the children should now try to form a group that equals 27, counting with the number they were given in the beginning of the game. If they need to use bottle caps (=1 / bottle cap) to reach the number, they can use them (ex. 27 = 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 + 1).
5
The round is completed when the children & bottle caps that make the number enter the circle (hula hoop) located on the ground.
6
The team that enters the hoop first, in a correct combination, wins.
Extra game information
The street worker should not shout numbers greater than the sum of the numbers in each group
