Laminate if desired for durability. Store in a large plastic zipper bag or manila envelope. Cover can be used as a center sign. Games may be played individually or in pairs. For differentiation, there are two ways to play: Place matching stickers (not included) of the back of cards that match. Players lay cards right side up in a 4 x 4 pattern.

If they are correct they keep the matching cards and go again. Player with the most matches when all the cards are matched wins. Do not put stickers on the back of the cards, or remove them if they were used previously. Players lay the cards face down in a 4 x 4 pattern and take turns making matches.
