Good morning Squiblets! How are you today? 💛 Did you know that playing games is one of the most powerful ways children (and grown-ups too!) can explore, learn, and express themselves? Whether it's building imaginary worlds, creating characters, or zooming through obstacle courses, play unlocks creativity and builds confidence. So go on—roll the dice of imagination and see what you can dream up today! 🎨🕹

(No batteries needed. Just imagination!)

1. Pick a Theme!
🌍 Space explorers? Jungle adventure? Squibble town talent show?
Choose something everyone loves!

2. Create a Game Board
📄 Use a big piece of paper or cardboard
🌀 Draw a path of squares, spirals, planets or islands!
Add some action spaces: “Sing a song!” “Jump 3 times!” “Go back 2!”

3. Make Playing Pieces
🎨 Use buttons, coins, LEGO figures, or draw your own characters and cut them out!
💡 Want to go extra Squibblicious? Create mini Squibble characters to play with! It's adventurous but it's fun.

4. Write Game Rules
Keep it simple:

• Take turns

• Roll a dice (or pick a number from a bowl!)

• First one to the finish wins!

5. Add Magic!
💫 Include cards with fun actions, silly sounds, or mystery prizes!
Maybe Colin appears and sends you on a detour to the Whisperling Woods...

6. Play and Laugh Together!
💛 Most important rule? Have fun and make up new rules as you go!

Why not use our Magic Dice? Just tap the screen and roll - no more losing the dice under the book case!

Colin’s back – and this time, he's got a magic rucksack! Our glorious globe-trotting Squibble will be making his second appearance in The Story Corner magazine by Bookmark Reading Charity later this year! Expect more laughter, more adventure, and even more things peeking out of that mysterious backpack. What could be inside? Time portals? Singing spoons? Disco shoes? You’ll have to wait and see! 💫

Take a look at Issue One below so you can catch up!

We’ve packed the Squibbles website with so many goodies, it’s practically bursting at the seams like Colin’s rucksack:
