memory matching game

I found this great idea for a memory matching game using cereal boxes a long time ago at plumpudding. It is so easy to make and so fun to play AND a great way to recycle all those expty cereal boxes!

materials-


several empty boxes (I used any kind of expty boxes)
circle pattern
scissors
pencil

directions-
1. trace the circle pattern 2 or 4 times anywhere on each box
2. cut all the circles out
3. place them face down on the floor or table
4. take turns flipping circles over
5. when a match is made, player gets to keep their match

Also check out these cute recycled bookmarks and turkeys that she made with cereal boxes. We made the turkeys last year and plan to make them again this year, too! I'm thinking we will make the bookmarks for the kids in our co-op class.
