SNAP by Dominika Boon, Felicity Brooks 2004 Cards NEW

Book Name: SNAP by Dominika Boon and Felicity Brooks is an exciting and engaging game designed for young children to enhance their matching and reading skills. This fast-paced game can be played by two or more players, making it perfect for family gatherings or playdates. With its 48 beautifully illustrated cards featuring Jo Litchfield's hand-made models of labeled objects like butterflies, monkeys, apples, and balloons, SNAP provides a visually appealing and interactive learning experience for children. The game includes 12 sets of 4 matching cards, allowing children to practice their memory and concentration skills while having fun. Each card is carefully crafted to capture the attention of young players and stimulate their curiosity. The vibrant illustrations not only make the game visually appealing but also aid in developing children's vocabulary and object recognition abilities. To play SNAP, the players shuffle the deck of cards and distribute them equally among themselves. The remaining cards are placed face-down in a pile in the center. The youngest player goes first, and the game proceeds in a clockwise direction. Each player takes turns flipping over the top card from their pile and placing it face-up in the center. As the cards are revealed, players must be quick to identify any matching pairs. When two cards with identical objects are placed consecutively, any player can shout "SNAP!" and claim the matching pair by placing their hand on top of the cards. The player who successfully claims the pair adds them to their collection. The game continues until all the cards have been matched and collected. SNAP not only encourages children to develop their matching skills but also promotes reading abilities. The labeled objects on each card provide an opportunity for children to associate words with their corresponding images, enhancing their reading comprehension and word recognition skills. By engaging in this game, children can improve their vocabulary
