Design-your-own matching game with white cards, coloured pencils and storage pouch

Create your own matching game with the white special-paper cards. Draw, write or stick pictures on them, such as animals, shapes or shared memories. The set includes coloured pencils and a storage pouch.

Design the cards

  1. Place the cards on a clean, dry surface and choose your pictures together.
  2. Make two cards with the same picture to create a matching pair. Simple pictures or symbols are a good starting point.
  3. Draw or write on the fronts using the supplied coloured pencils. Keep the backs uniform so the pairs cannot be recognised while face down.
  4. If you stick pictures on the cards, choose flat, lightweight designs. Use glue sparingly and let the cards dry completely before shuffling or storing them. Test other pens on one card first.

Prepare the game

  1. Choose the pairs you want to use. Start with a few pairs and add more as you become familiar with the game.
  2. Shuffle the cards and arrange them face down on the table. A grid makes their positions easier to remember.

How to play

  1. Decide the playing order before you start. On your turn, turn over two cards so everyone can see the pictures.
  2. If the pictures match, keep the pair and take another turn.
  3. If they do not match, turn both cards face down again in the same positions. The next player then takes a turn.
  4. The game ends when all pairs have been found. The player with the most pairs wins. Equal totals mean a draw.

Care and storage

  1. Keep the paper cards dry and away from drinks, moisture and creases. Gently remove dust with a dry, soft cloth.
  2. After playing, put the dry cards in the supplied pouch. Store the coloured pencils with the set in a dry place.
  3. Support younger children during crafting and play. Stop using damaged cards and put the materials away neatly after use.
