I packed my suitcase
This is an excellent game for building your child's memory skills and confidence
- and it is also fun!
I went on holiday
A slightly more difficult version of "I packed my suitcase", the players will
need some geographical knowledge for this memory game.
Memory
This is a classic game which can be played with a normal pack of cards or any
number of specially adapted cards, or even objects. Great fun and great for
developing concentration and memory skills.

The Tray Game

children down) and also for a group of kids on a rainy afternoon. Regularly
playing this game can really sharpen your memory skills and give children
practise in concentrating.
Under the Cups
A fun version of "Memory" with an added twist.

Make A Ping Pong Bat And Net
The Chinese introduced table tennis to the world and have always been extremely
good at the sport. You can make your own ping pong bats and net and have a go!
Make A Name Book
More of a craft activity than a game, this is a great way for kids to get to
know each other at the beginning of the school year.
Fishing (Tiu-u or Chinese Dominoes) This game of Chinese dominoes sounds a little complicated to
begin with but is in fact very simple to play. The name ‘fishing’ comes from
the idea that players ‘fish’ for matching dominoes. You can either print out
our dominoes or make your own more authentic version with popsicle sticks
(instructions included!)
