Rubik's Cube Battle Card Game

   

                                           

Here's a fun twist to the Rubik cube - Rubik cube card game. This is interesting because many of our children may not enjoy playing with the traditional rubik cube because of fine motor and motor planning difficulties. This game is kid friendly and has many pattern cards too.

The colourful wooden tiles are smooth and large enough to handle easily. The kiddo has to recreate the pattern by placing the corresponding tiles and sliding them to match the pattern. Once they are more comfortable, make it a little challenging by adding a competitive element as they play with another child.

This is the latest addition to our homeschooling games treasure, hope you found it interesting. This simple and fun game helps foster fine motor skills, visual skills, matching and thinking skills as well as problem solving skills.
