My Creations Memory Game - some other ideas



There are so many different things that you can do with CTMH's My Creations Memory Game. In my earlier post (http://mprantner.blogspot.com/2011/10/my-creations-memory-card-game.html) I showed you one example for using this product, but there are so many more.

Here are some samples of alternatives for the whole set: numbers with a corresponding number of stamped images, and upper and lower case letters. You could also match stamped images with the letters they start with, match photos/stamps with the corresponding word in a foreign language, or if your family lives far away match photos with titles (Uncle Theo, Aunt Lydia, etc.).

You could also create an Advent activities box (see pg. 54 in the Idea Book), a visual phone directory for kids who can't read yet, a puzzle (by printing a 12x18 photo and cutting it into 3x3 pieces that are mounted to each of the coasters), the list goes on and on.



And you don't need to feel tied to the box. At 42 cents a piece, these chipboard coasters are a steal! Use them as above to make double frames, ornaments, or framed magnets. You could also connect a bunch of tiles to spell out words such as welcome, noel, family, or spell out your last name. Have fun, and involve the kids. These are easy, family friendly projects to complete.
