It will also be a great way to educate children about nutrition and the issues around overeating, junk food and obesity.

Put your tactics to the test with a variety of classic 'pencil and paper' games and new ones, too. Then, take a line for a walk, turn pencil shavings into pictures and discover simple but effective shading techniques. Join dots and fill in squares to reveal surprising scenes, then complete posters and signs using your own imagination and words. You'll also find shape puzzles, codes to crack, patterns activities and a mini golf course you can play with just a pencil.
