Nutty Numbers is an exciting number and counting game. Players join a group of adventurous squirrels as they race to collect the most acorns by building their own winding paths through the forest. Players take turns rolling the dice and picking up cards that match the number rolled, adding them to their squirrel's path. But watch out! If a player picks up a squirrel picnic card, the matching coloured squirrel has collected enough acorns and their journey ends. Once all players have completed their paths, it's time to count the acorns - the player with the most wins!

This game provides the perfect balance of learning and fun, helping children develop early numeracy skills, observation, and strategic thinking in an engaging way. With simple gameplay and friendly squirrel characters, Nutty Numbers makes counting an exciting adventure!
