- One set of ‘Counting in 2’s Rabbit Cards’ (AND one extra ’24’ card)
- To prepare - cut up, shuffle and place 'Counting in 2’s Rabbit Cards’ face down in a grid.
How to play…
Players take turns to select one card from the grid. If selected card fits into either the ‘upper’ or ‘lower’ sequence (above/below ‘grass’ on board) player keeps and positions this card on their board. The player then has another turn. If that card does not fit either sequence on the player’s board the card is returned and it is the next players turn. WINNER matches all (x4) 2’s cards correctly first! Game and card instructions are included at the top of each 'Carrot game board' and 'Counting in 2's Rabbit cards' resource to cut out and keep.
