Popular family board game “The Sock Game” hits local schools and holiday clubs

The Sock Game is a fast-paced, sensory-based game that challenges players to race against the clock (and each other) to find objects hidden inside a giant sock. With its blend of tactile play, teamwork, and friendly competition, the game has quickly become a hit among educators and youth group leaders.

And Now, with the launch of Sock Game Junior, even younger children can get involved with a version specially designed for early learners—with larger items, simpler cards, and gameplay tailored to developing fine motor skills.

Nigel, a long-time advocate for the power of games-based learning through his work with Imagination Gaming, has been instrumental in facilitating the game’s integration into educational environments. His strong relationships with schools and clubs across the region have allowed The Sock Game to reach hundreds of children, sparking laughter, learning, and plenty of competitive spirit.

“We’ve seen first-hand how engaging The Sock Game is for children of all ages,” said Nigel. “It’s a brilliant way to develop key skills like problem-solving, communication, and sensory awareness—all while having a great time. When running activities in schools or during the holidays it’s essential to have games that can be taught and understood easily that give a great experience with lots of replayability. Sock game and its Junior cousin do just that!”
