Product Overview

Count Your Chickens is a cooperative board game where players work together to help Mother Hen collect all 40 baby chicks and bring them back to the coop. Players spin and move, count the number of spaces traveled, then collect that same number of chicken tokens. The game combines two types of counting practice: counting abstract board spaces and counting physical chicken tokens. Everyone wins when all the chicks are collected.

Cooperative gameplay where players work together instead of competing against each other
Designed for preschool-aged children to practice counting skills through hands-on play
Spin-and-move mechanics paired with token collection create a springboard for mathematical conversations
Made with environmentally friendly materials

WARNING:
