    How to play

    • Choose a Game from the "Get Ready for First Grade" section of the Online Escape Game Library. (Games are arranged in order of difficulty and academic skills build on each other).
    • Print the game and set it up with the lockbox game kit.
    • Kids play independently or with a small group (up to 4 kids)
    • Each game has 5 learning tasks, each task opens a lock, and the last one unlocks the treasure chest.

    How to set up the games:

    Setting up the games doesn't take very long once you get the hang of it. Each game comes with detailed instructions for setup. All you need are scissors (for minimal cutting) and a small surprise to add to the treasure chest.
