Card Games

These educational card games are lots of fun, and are infinitely adaptable to suit any activities which you would like to reinforce with your children. Choose one of our pre-made games, or print out our "blank" and make your own!

To play with a class of children:

Cut out the cards and give one to each child in the class (you may need to double up a little). You will see that one card begins with a star: this is the starting card. Similarly, one card ends with a star, and this is the final card.

Whoever has the starting card reads it out. Each child looks at his/her card to see if it follows on, and if it does they reply with their red sentence, then ask their blue sentence. Follow around the class as quickly as you can.

The game is wonderful for concentration! As the children get better at it, you can introduce a stopwatch to see if you can beat your previous record.

To play with a small group of children:

Deal the cards out so that you all have roughly the same number. You can fan the cards in your hand, or simply lay them out in front of you as there is no benefit to keeping them secret!

Again, whoever has the starting card reads it out and players must follow on in sequence. You can turn the cards over as they are played, and introduce a competitive element by saying that the first child to turn all their cards over is the winner (but bear in mind if you do this that you will never get to the end of the sequence!) Or you can play all the cards and race with a stopwatch to see if you can beat your previous time.

View and print the cards by clicking on the links below. You will need Acrobat Reader, which you can download free here.

Children can make this game for a younger sibling, to help them learn to count - they'll have fun assembling the containers and objects.

Call My Bluff
This is a fun word game (made famous by the TV show) which can help children to learn new words, practise dictionary work and presentation skills! It works best in a classroom or large group setting, and you will need time to prepare.
