Pattern Match

Can you look at the picture and place them in order?

The pattern card at the top shows 6 beads in different colors and shapes. Pick matching beads from the bead tray below, in order, to fill the empty spots. The game is based on the pattern bead-stringing activities used in occupational therapy.

How to play

Tap Start, and a pattern card with 6 beads appears at the top.
From the bead tray below (4 colors × 3 shapes), tap the bead that matches the first one in the pattern.
If it's right, the empty spots fill in order. If it's wrong, the bead gives a little shake.
Fill all 6 to move to the next pattern. Finish 3 patterns to see your time.

Tips

Both color and shape must match to be correct. Try saying both out loud, like "red triangle."
Finding the next bead you'll need ahead of time will save you time.
A wrong pick only costs a point, and you can keep going. Slow and accurate is the way to go.
