Home › Worksheets › Snakes & ladders
A new board every click, plus 24 challenge cards. You only need a die and a few tokens.
Snakes and ladders is often a child’s first board game, and it quietly teaches a lot: counting squares one by one, reading numbers to 100, and seeing that the board goes left to right, then right to left. Our version adds challenge cards on the ⭐ squares, so every game also becomes a few minutes of mental maths practice — without it ever feeling like homework.
Best for ages 5–10
The printed board, the cut-out challenge cards, one die and a small token for each player — a coin, a button or a bottle cap works perfectly.
Yes. Each click on “New game” places the snakes, ladders and ⭐ squares differently and makes 24 new challenge cards, so you can print a fresh game every time.
Usually 15 to 25 minutes with 2–4 players — just right for the attention span of young children.
