Games with Dots
Classic Dots Example
CLASSIC DOTS
Draw a grid of dots or print/download a grid of dots. Players take turns drawing one line between two dots that are next to each other. Lines may not go diagonally. When a player draws a line that completes a square, she writes her initials inside the square. When all the squares have been completed, players count the number of squares with their initials. The player with the most squares wins.

TRIANGULAR DOTS
This game is a lot like Classic Dots. The biggest difference is the playing grid. Instead of a square grid, you'll be creating a pyramid. Make your pyramid with one dot on the top row, two dots on the second row, three dots on the third row, and so on or print/download a triangular grid. Players take turns drawing lines between dots to make triangles. In this game, of course, diagonal lines are allowed. When a player makes a triangle, he writes his initials in the triangle. The player with initials in the most triangles after all the dots have been connected wins.
