About Whack a Mole
When you press Start, little moles begin popping up out of the holes. Your job is to tap or click each mole as quickly as you can before it ducks back down. Every mole you hit gives you a point. You have 30 seconds, so keep your eyes moving across all the holes and tap fast. When the time runs out, you see your score, and your best score is saved so you can try to beat it.
Tips for kids
Keep your hand ready in the middle so you can reach any hole quickly. Watch the whole board, not just one spot, because moles can pop up anywhere. If it feels too fast, switch to Easy mode, which gives the moles a little longer before they hide.
Why it is good for kids
Whack a Mole is great for building reaction time, focus and hand eye coordination. It is quick and giggly, which makes it perfect for younger children and for a fun energy burst between other activities.
