About The Number Goose
The classic Spanish goose board game turned into a counting game for the early years. You roll the dice and the child taps square by square to move their piece while a voice says each number, so they learn to count hops and recognise the numbers from 1 to 20. Play alone against Pipo or with two players on the same phone, with no timer and no way to lose, and win a sticker at the end.
It's free to play in the browser, with no sign-up and no downloads, on a phone, tablet or computer.
