Blast off into outer space! In this exciting digital game, students warp between galaxies, collecting cosmic objects as they correctly identify activities that happen at different times of the day. Each correct response earns them space badges to celebrate their progress among the stars.

This version focuses on building students’ understanding of daily routines and time awareness. By identifying whether activities belong in the morning, lunchtime, afternoon, or night, learners strengthen their sequencing and real-world knowledge of how time connects to everyday events.

Let’s Explore – Time of Day: Activities is perfect for whole-class exploration on an interactive whiteboard, or students can scan the QR code to play independently. Whether during literacy or maths rotations, as an early finisher option, or as a fun homework activity, this game makes learning about time engaging and interactive.
