Have some FUN with Cards!
Wednesday, April 11, 2012 at 8:32AM 
A simple deck of cards has been providing hours of fun.
On Easter afternoon my children invited some neighbor kids (also homeschooled!) over to play their favorite card game.
Salute The King is easy and hilarious.
You have to be quick and creative.
We recommend a deck of LARGE FACED cards to make it easier to play.
My neighbor said her children have been playing it constantly since we taught them.... we also taught them how to play Garbage (some call it Trash) - which is great for big and little kids (it's super for teaching ordinal numbers, by the way.)
What's your favorite card game?

I need instructions! :) Those look like such fun. We love silly games. Our favorite card game is "Phase 10" Kei and I have an ongoing game.
Nevermind...I see the link. DUH ;)
Mary, these games look like SO much fun!! I will be trying them out with my girls...maybe later on today :) Thanks!!
My favorite family card game is "Spoons." :-)
We've played many a card game lately while in the hospital waiting room, but these games are new to us. Thanks for sharing:) We'll check them out...looks like fun!
I played Spoons growing up, too, Stephanie. It got kinda physical though, lol! Mary, I LOVE this post! I can't wait to play these with my little ones =)
