Number of players: 2
Print off 4 shape card sheets per every 2 players. Should have 48 cards
total. (link below)
Teachers: Put players into groups of 2. Give each player 2 card
sheets with 12 shape cards on each sheet. Have each player color all of
the shapes. Cut out all shape cards. Should have 48 total per 2 players.
Shuffle all 48 cards. Give 24 to one player and 24 to the other.
Parents: Same as Teacher section.
Play Instructions: Give each player 24 cards. Oldest player says
“Go” and both players turn over their top card, placing the cards
shape-side-up, next to each other. The player who flipped over the card
with the big shape on it gets to keep both cards. (Only if the other
players card was a small shape) Then the oldest yells “Go” again and
they continue to flip over the next card. If both cards played are big
shapes, or both are small shapes then neither player gets to keep that
pair, they should flip over another card until one player has a big
shape card and the other has the small one. The player with the big
shape card keeps that pair and the cards under them. Continue flipping
cards until all cards have been played.
How to win: The player with the most cards in the end is the
winner.
