The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
Suggest learning games using household items. Child's age: [AGE]. Skills to practise (counting, spelling, vocabulary, time, fractions): [SKILLS]. Time and space: [TIME_SPACE]. Provide fifteen games, each with materials, instructions in three steps, the skill practised, how to make it easier or harder, and how to tell if it worked. Group them into quiet, active, and car-journey games. Include a one-week plan that rotates the games. Keep safety in mind for small parts and supervision, and avoid anything requiring purchases. Add a note on keeping the games enjoyable and stopping when the child loses interest. Add a safety note for each category of game, a list of items to avoid for children under a certain age, and a way to adapt the games for children with different abilities. Provide a simple scoring or reward system that emphasises fun, and a record of the games my child enjoyed most for repeating later.
