Chutes & Ladders


Oh, what fun! I don’t recall having this game as a child, but I remember playing “Go to the Head of the Class” which was quite similar. Spin the spinner and move your little person from one to one hundred. If you land on a ladder, climb up! If you land on a chute, slide down!

Britain has Snakes and Ladders which is pretty much the same. Perhaps Americans thought the snakes were too scary! Ha! Check the BBC Schools website for a Shockwave version of this game. Orion and I have stopped using the spinner with this game. We use several of the modifications that I’ve mentioned under Sorry!
