About Snake
You control a snake that moves around the board. Use the arrow keys on a keyboard, or swipe on a touch screen, to change direction. Guide the snake to the food, and each time it eats, it grows a little longer and your score goes up. The catch is that you must not hit the walls or crash into the snake own body. As the snake gets longer, the board gets trickier, so plan your turns and leave yourself room to move.
Tips for kids
Do not rush into tight spaces, give yourself room to turn. Try to keep the snake near the edges and use the open middle to reach the food. Think one or two moves ahead, especially once the snake is long. If it speeds up, stay calm and make small, careful turns.
Why it is good for kids
Snake builds quick decision making, planning and hand eye coordination. It is easy to learn but always a little different, which keeps it fun and gives children a friendly reason to keep improving their best score.
