Quadratico! or Squares

Two games that work almost anywhere.

Quadratico! or Squares: it’s all about strategy

  1. Make a grid of dots on some paper. Any paper you can find. 🙂
  2. Take turns connecting two dots.
  3. If you complete a square when you connect your dots, you get another turn.
  4. Color in the squares you’ve “won”.

 

Squiggle: creative rest on the journey

  1. One person makes a “squiggle” of any kind.
  2. The other person transforms the squiggle into miniature art. Then draws a new squiggle for the other.

Have fun!

(Read the story of how these games made some new friends on the train.)
