Giant Classic Games

We all know them, Jenga, Checkers, Connect 4, Tic-Tac-Toe, and more…

The great thing about the giant versions of these classic games, is that they continue to work on the executive functioning aspects of the game and add in more physical activity requirements and allow you to further facilitate bilateral coordination, whole body coordination, balance, motor planning, sequencing, transitional positions, proximal stability, visual information processing, eye hand coordination, cooperative team play, as well as independent play challenges.

In the clinical and academic setting these are fantastic! Especially if you have a sensorimotor area that you can keep them set up in for easy access. Nonetheless, all of these recommended giant games, come with a storage container and many clients and patients would benefit from the skills that can be facilitated with the set-up, breakdown, and storage of the game.

Consider these games for your clinics, classrooms, before and after school programs, and socialization programs.
