Fun with Snap Game & Memory Game

Inside the dinosaur fun kits, there were some dinosaur cards in it. There were more than 10 dinosaur’s pictures on it with 2 cards for each dinosaur.

The game suggested in the book was – Snap. I divided the children into 2 big groups with about 8 in each group. Then they took turns to play the “Snap” game. However, it seems the chances of getting the 2 same cards are pretty low. The children were very anxious and excited as they wanted to be the one who called out “snap”.

I thought of another game that we could play with the card. It’s “Memory Game”. Since each dinosaur’s pictures have 2 cards, I could use it to see if the children are attentive to it. The children were divided into 2 big groups again with about 8 each time.

Some of them could remember the cards that their friends had flipped open while some were just trying their luck. Anyhow, the children had fun playing it especially when they managed to open the 2 cards with the same dinosaur.
