Turn English learning into a creative adventure with our ESL Build-It Games! Students make choices step by step to build fun creations, like food, animals, or characters, while naturally practicing everyday vocabulary and essential sentence patterns.
These interactive games encourage children to speak in full sentences (“I want…” / “I like…”), use descriptive words, and expand their English fluency in a playful, stress-free way. Perfect for both online and classroom teaching, Build-It Games keep students engaged and motivated to learn.
✨ Why students and teachers love it:
✅ Reinforces key ESL vocabulary through fun choices
✅ Builds confidence using full-sentence patterns
✅ Encourages creativity, imagination, and conversation
✅ Interactive, replayable, and perfect for young learners
✨ How to play:
1.Students are presented with two choices on the screen.
2.They choose one option to add to their creation.
3.With each new choice, the creation grows step by step.
4.Students practice speaking sentences as they play (“I want…” / “I like this one”).
5.Keep building until the final creation is complete!

Yay. My kids love this. Kuromi is a popular one. I think a unicorn one would also be cute. Maybe a shaved ice ice cream, a noodle bowl, a salad. A house or room for My Melody/ Kuromi and a Mind craft village. 🤗🤗
Sushi would also be cute. 🍣 A picnic. Under the sea. A tree house. The seasons. A cat and a dog.
These are all great ideas! Thank you I will start making working on them in the next few weeks.
Build a labubu would be fun.
