Customer Reviews

Fun Family Time

We like play cards with the older children and this is a good tool to help us learn new games together for fun family time.

many games with variations

A great book with easy to follow instruction. The only negative is that so many of the basics have very closely related variations of the same game just called a different name, not that that's bad, but the name of the book suggests you are getting all different games. In reality, quite a few are similar variations of one game. Still, a good book for all ages of card players. The games explain what ages can enjoy the game and how many can play, etc.

Fun ideas for family games

Easy to read book of games. I liked how they divided it up into types and also suggested number of players and ages for each game.

Bright Ideas for Busy Families

I love to play cards with my children but can never rememberthe rules to my favorite games. This book has solved that problem forme :) It's amazing how a deck of cards and a rule book can bring a family together...

*Family Time* is Easy to Enjoy

"101 Best Family Card Games" is a clear, consise and informative book. It explains the rules and course of play for many card games. The best part of the book is the section on why families should play together. I also found the card games explained in the "For the Family with Young Children" to be a great guide and a wonderful source for my young children.
