THE SNAKE & CAMEL HAJJ GAME

BOARD GAME FOR MUSLIM KIDS, BOARD GAME SERIES

The long-awaited family Islamic board game is here! This game is suitable for the whole family, from early learners (5 years old) to learned men and women (grandparents!).

The Snake and Camel Hajj Game is an innovation to the classic Snake and Ladder board game, incorporating Hajj elements into the gameplay.

Dice roll to move through the game in steps, the slithery Snake represents the danger of sliding back a few steps, while the Camel represents the gift of jumping ahead a few steps.

This game helps early learners to recognize the numbers they hear in their early life and unite the written symbols with the meaning of the value these symbols represent. Early learners count each spot on the dice to find out what number they rolled and recognize the patterns that make up each number. From recognizing numbers, playing this game repetitively will surely assist children in learning counting strategies that form the basis of addition and subtraction.

The most important innovation to the gameplay is the sequence and ritual of Hajj. Pillars and obligatories of Hajj such as Niyyah, Ihram, Tawaf, Wuquf and etc are the key to this game. Pillars and obligatories of Hajj are highlighted (so that they are easily known and remembered) as these are the gift of jumping ahead a few steps in the game. Similarly, the prohibition of Hajj and bad manners are also highlighted (so that they are known and be avoided) as these are the sliding back few a few steps in the game.

The best part of this integrated Islamic and Maths Game Board is that because it is a game involving competition of racing to attain Hajj Mabrur, learning about the Pillars of Islam and skills in Maths sink in without anyone really noticing.

While playing this game, it is recommended for adults (parents or grandparents, or educators) to narrate their experience or knowledge about Hajj to early learners.

Be sure to have this Snake and Camel Game Board so you can play with your young ones knowing they will sure learn important fundamentals of Maths and Pillars of Islam!
