Mudpuppy Copy Cat Card Game

Need small gift that will be fun to play for a party or family gathering with all the cousins? Try this memory game. Kids draw a card and imitate the action the creatures on the card is doing. Now the next player draws a card and does the action on her card AND the action the previous player did. The game continues as players do the action on the cards they draw followed by the actions of the previous players. It’s a cumulative memory game that gets harder as play proceeds. The rules say the player who forgets is “out” and now a new round begins. We think it would be better to just start a new round, but let everyone continue playing. Marked 3-10 and we think the sweet spot is somewhere in the middle.

Also fun, Crazy Chameleon! ($7.99) An easy matching card game where players can match one of two attributes, the color of the Chameleon or the suite (heart, club, spade or diamond). Object is to be the first to play all your cards. These games make good stocking stuffers or a no special reason gift.
