Stepping Stones

Hop across the pond, only on stones that fit the rule.

Who's hopping today?

🤔 How to play

  1. Pick your critter: Clover the Bunny, Pip the Frog, Plum the Baby Dino or Mango the Kitten.
  2. Pick a pond. Each one has a rule, like Hop on the 3 times table or Hop on stones that make 10.
  3. Tap a glowing stone next to your critter. Only stones that fit the rule hold you up.
  4. Land on a wrong stone and it sinks. Splash! The game shows why it was wrong, and your critter climbs back to try again.
  5. Reach the far bank, where your friends are waiting. No splashes earns three stars. Nothing is saved, so stars reset when you leave.

On a keyboard: the arrow keys ↑ ↓ ← → choose a stone, and Enter hops. Tap 💡 for a hint, or the face button to switch critters at any time.

What it practises

Odd and even numbers, the times tables from 2 to 10, and number bonds to 10, 20 and 100. Every pond is new each time, and the wrong stones are near misses, like 14 in the 4 times table, so guessing does not work.
