Put Out the Fires

Game rules

This game can be played with 2-10 players. Each player chooses a color card with a burning house. For each color, you can choose between a boy or girl firefighter. Each player gets the same number of empty water drops in a separate container to extinguish fires. Only the drops with dice numbers are hidden in, for example: a sensory bag or container with paper scraps in the colors of fire flames. Let the children take turns grabbing one drop. What number do you have? Look in your house, is there a fire with the same number? Extinguish the fire by placing a drop over it. If you have more than one fire with the same number, you may extinguish two fires. The drop with the number goes back into the container. Continue until someone has extinguished all the fires. That player is the winning firefighter!

TIP

You can also work with a dice instead of grabbing the drops. Some sensory ideas to let the drops be grabbed: colored spaghetti, red gelatin, paper scraps, crepe paper pieces, or colored rice.

Level

The first and second kindergarten classes are our recommendation! Depending on your class group, you decide whether this bundle is feasible or not.
