Funky Facts Germs Game
The Funky Facts Germs Game is an interactive activity designed for young children that involves reading different facts on individual germ characters and deciding whether they are ‘good’ or ‘bad’ germs. Once children have decided whether they are 'good' or 'bad' germs, they can then place them around certain areas of the house/classroom/outside areas where they think the real germs would be hiding. These can then be displayed in these areas as a visual prompt or be taken down to play again. To start playing, simply download, print and cut out the germ characters below.
