Card Games : What Shall We Do Now?

The 'Out of School' series is designed to provide adults involved in extended schools and wrap around care with simple, cost effective solutions to keep children interested, involved and learning.

The series aims to offer resources that have a focuson enjoyment, and give priority to learning but without being just more school.

So the activities are short, fun-filled and lively, and will keep children profitably busy.

We all know one or two card games but there are many others ideal for filling those spare five minutes.

In this book are gathered together 50 games that can be played by individuals alone or by children in groups.

For most of them all that is needed is a standard pack of 52 cards.

The games are fun and children will want to play them often, returning to their favourites time and again.
