However, one night, he asked me if he could play this game that he had made...
The rule of this game was to roll a die, and then the number that you get is the number you go to on the chart. To win, you must make you way up and down the columns until you get to the 0 block. However, I don't think he realized that the number 0 is absent on a die (as well as 7 and 8).
We did play following his rules for about 5 minutes, and the he decided it was time to lead a new adventure with his power rangers...
My thoughts: he enjoys games more than I realized; this was a great initial game for him to create... just not yet thoroughly thought-out.
Then again, he IS only four, and definitely following his own lead for creativity! :-)
I'm linking up to Montessori Monday and Math Box.

That's wonderful Leann, we've been working a lot at school with our Middle School class on changing rules of games and seeing how the game changes.
Making your own rules is so empowering and fun, and teaches so much about game structures!
Great stuff!
