Funny Bone Surgery

Why We Picked Funny Bone Surgery

Funny Bone Surgery is designed to be explored rather than completed, which is why nothing is scored. There is nothing to lose, so there is nothing to be anxious about. The sound cues do most of the teaching, so a child who cannot read yet can still play. It has 161 plays, and most of them are probably shorter than the adult expected. On the record: 5.0 out of 5 from 3 ratings, and 89 of 99 on the junior shelf.

How to Play

The page documents very little, so these are the things worth knowing before you spend time on it:

• Touch-only games are worth trying on a phone when the mouse does nothing on desktop.
• Complete the little task the screen sets, at whatever pace suits.
• Name what is happening on screen, then let the child repeat it at their own pace.

Editor’s Note

Little persists between visits, so a child starts fresh each time without losing anything. The screen is designed to be touched rather than read, which is why the labels are large and few.
