🎂 Mega Party Quest — a free maths game for kids
A surprise party tonight and nothing is ready. Plan the route, bake in order, buy exactly enough.
Sequencing is the first real computational-thinking skill: order matters, some instructions are noise, and a plan can be too slow even when every step is correct. Party Quest wraps that up with grouping and division at the shop and a time budget on the map.
How to play
- 1Visit the neighbourhood locations — bakery, party store, park, music studio.
- 2At the bakery put the recipe steps in the right order; some steps do not belong at all.
- 3At the store work out how many packs cover what you need.
- 4Then plan a route that visits everything before the party starts.
Frequently asked questions
- Is this a coding game?
- It is computational thinking rather than syntax — ordering instructions, spotting the step that does not belong, and repeating an action a set number of times.
- How does the route challenge work?
- Each stop costs minutes and the party starts on a timer, so children add up travel times and drop the stops that will not fit.
- What maths shows up at the shop?
- Grouping and division — twelve balloons from packets of three — plus money and change at the higher bands.
- Is Mega Party Quest free?
- Yes, free with no signup.
