6. Walk as long as you can

In this activity the challenge is to stay as long as possible on the board using colours instead of footprints. The activity becomes harder when the freedom of movement increases

Required material: chequered board, coloured cards, or red, yellow and grey markers

Questions

Q1. When do the two paths collide and block each other?

Q2. This game is presented as a two-player game? Is it possible to play it in 3 or 4 players? Do we need to change the rules?
