Game created by Mary, The Game Lady Fun sorting game for young children to drill colors. To Make: The cards were made using pictures I cut from some worksheets. They were glued to index cards using rubber cement. Pictures from any source could be used for this type of game and any number of cards could be created. To Play:
I drew the pattern for the crayons and added the color names. Then I colored these using crayons to get "true" colors. I glued these to the library pockets using rubber cement, just enough to hold them in place. I covered the crayons with clear Contact paper to protect them.
Then the library pockets were arranged and glued to the file folder, again using rubber cement.
This type of game is wonderful for solitary play. To make a two or more player game, additional file folders with pockets are needed, one for each player.
In turn, players would draw one card from the shuffled draw pile and place it in the appropriate pocket if it is empty. If he already has the pocket filled, he would place the card in a discard pile. The next player can either draw the discarded card or the top card from the draw pile. The first player to file his pockets is the winner.
