Monster Market
Each question is one trip to the market stall. The question hangs on the striped board, and every answer is written on a crate of tomatoes, lemons, cabbages or carrots. Students pick the crate with the right answer, and Blobbo the monster grabs a piece and munches it.
How to play Monster Market
- Press Play and read the question on the striped board.
- Read the answers on the crate labels.
- Pick the right crate: click or tap it, press 1 to 4 or A to D, or T and F on a true or false question.
Right and wrong answers
One pick per question, and it counts. A right pick and Blobbo munches happily while his friends cheer. A wrong pick and he pulls a sour face, and the right crate glows so students see the answer before the next question. The clock pauses between questions.

Blobbo pulls a sour face and the right crate glows and bobs, so the answer is always shown before the next question.
