Colorent

  • Benefits: This popular game is particularly about skill, color recognition and coordination.

  • Playmates: at least 2
  • Special feature: works with the Stapelstein® Inspire app (tool: change colors)


Base game:

The Stapelstein® Originals are closely interpreted as square playing field. The game line or a child gives commands by calling a part of the body and a color, such as "foot" and "green". A child who plays along now tries to place the part of the body mentioned on a free element of the right color. Then comes the next command "Hand" and "yellow" and the child places his hand in an appealing manner.

If you are practiced in the basic game, the commands can be expanded with the "left" and "right" requirement or create funny combinations such as "Po" and "Orange"Or" left tipte "on" blue ".

Variant 1: Competition

Are you several children playing? Then you can either play together on a playing field - this will be really funny - or you can put two same playing fields with a little distance from each other and form teams. Which team can stay on the elements longer? Which team coordinates faster?

Variant 2: Crazy playing fields

Sort the field in a certain order, such as colors or enlarges the distances between the individual elements. Does it make it more difficult or easier?

Variant 3: 3D playing field

You can vary the field in height. Stacks a second element on one or the other element and then decides whether a color combination of yellow and red is still yellow and red or whether it is a color Orange is valid.

For tricky twist adventures:

In order to bring even more dynamics into the game, you can turn an element to the bowl, replaces one Original Through a Board Or integrates the Stapelstein® Inside Elements.

Before the start of the game, all children playing creates a treasure map by on a sheet of paper through colored circles Stapelstein® Paint the elements and connect them by lines. Now the treasure maps are exchanged. Each child who plays along tries to run the elements of the order as well as on their card. A little treasure may also hide under the one or the other target element.

Variant 1: Obstacle run

Different obstacles are installed on the way to the treasure, such as a bucket, a rope, a stool, a trampoline etc. It has to be skipped, climbed or overflow.

Variant 2: Ears Pointed

The card is not taken away by the treasurery child, but the path is only described by another child with words.

Variant 3: Teamwork

Two of you are tied together on the feet and try to find the treasure together.

For tricky treasure hunt adventures:

The treasure hunt gives time to memorize the treasure map. Then it tries to master the way out of the memory and discover the treasure.
