Probability game for 2 children You need 40 cubes and number cards I-30. Shuffle the cards and place them in a pile face down. Take 20 cubes each. This is your bank. Place two cubes each in the centre. This is the kitty. The first player turns over the top card. The second player thinks about the probability of the number on the next card being larger, and chooses one of the following options: a) If they think that there is a less than even chance that the next card will be larger, they can say No play and player one takes the kitty. b) If they think there is a better than even chance that the next card will be larger, they put onother cube in the kitty and turn over the next card. If the card number is not larger, then player one takes the kitty. Ifit is Larger, player one looks at the new card, thinks about the probability of the next card being larger and chooses between options a) and b), and so on. Once someone has won the kitty, put the used cards on a separate pile and play again. Think very carefully about how likely it is that the next card will be larger before making each choice. The winner is the player who ends up with more cubes. 1002 pa wone29p3 UNe>10H © WIDS 91024 YONA OMeWDY anions snoDAY | — == se emrmrrere es
