#342: Memory

This memory game is played with playing cards. Take the deck of cards and arrange them face down on a table or the floor. During your turn, flip over two cards, leaving them in their spot. If they are a pair, take them. If they are not a pair, turn them face down again.

It is now the other player’s turn.

Lay the cards out like this,
only face down so nobody sees which cards are where.

If you make a pair, you can keep going until you can’t make anymore pairs. Whoever makes the most number of pairs wins the game.

Hint: This game can also be played alone.


Make this a family game: See who remembers where all those cards are!
