Snakes and Ladders & Ludo Board Game
$67.10
A two-in-one board game combining Snakes and Ladders and Ludo, adapted for players with visual or cognitive impairments. Features high-contrast boards, enlarged counters, and dice cards in place of standard dice. Supports up to four players.
This two-in-one board game brings together Snakes and Ladders and Ludo in versions adapted for players with visual or cognitive impairments. As a ludo game for seniors and others with dexterity or low-vision needs, it replaces standard dice with a set of numbered cards and uses high-contrast boards with clear, uncluttered design.
How it can be used
To use the dice cards, place all six face-down on the table and ask the player to select one — the number shown is how many spaces they move. This removes the need to roll or read a standard die. Enlarged counters are easier to grip and position for players with rheumatism or limited hand dexterity. The game supports up to four players, making it well suited to small group sessions or family visits.
The set can also be used as a floor board games option when the board is placed flat on a low table or floor surface for easier reach. Key features at a glance:
- Two games in one set: Snakes and Ladders and Ludo
- High-contrast board with clear visual design
- Enlarged counters for easier handling
- Dice cards included as an alternative to standard dice
- Supports up to four players
- Small group session: Run a short Snakes and Ladders game with two to four residents. Use the dice cards by spreading them face-down and letting each player choose their own — this keeps the turn-taking ritual without the difficulty of rolling.
- Family visit activity: Set up Ludo as a structured activity during family visits. The familiar format gives family members and residents a shared focus without requiring facilitation.
- One-to-one engagement: Play a simplified version of Snakes and Ladders with a single resident, using only a few counters and narrating each move aloud to encourage conversation and recall.
- Reminiscence prompt: Use the games as a starting point for conversation about childhood play, school games, or family traditions before or after a round.
- Dexterity practice: Encourage residents to handle and place the enlarged counters independently as a low-pressure way to practise fine motor movement during a game session.
