Flip to Win Memory Game
A memory board game by the popular toymaker Melissa and Doug, the Flip to Win Memory Game is a board game designed for kids on the go. Players can choose from a wide variety of playing themes, including numbers, vehicles, fruit, shapes and items you might see on a farm. Players slide the themed card of choice into the game board. Then, each player takes turns sliding open the tiled windows to reveal the item on the themed card; whoever finds a match gets to mark his or her score at the bottom of the game board.
Memory Toy Story Edition
Made by Hasbro, Memory Toy Story Edition is a memory game built on the popular animated movie series. In this game, players arrange the 72 tiles, each bearing the face of a popular Toy Story character. The tiles are placed face down on a table or flat surface, and players take turns flipping over two tiles at a time. If players find a match, such as two Woody faces, two Buzz Lightyear faces or two Rex faces, she takes those two cards from the field of play. This game is designed for children ages 3 and up and can be played by one or more people at a time.
Memory Disney Princess Edition
Another memory board game by Hasbro is the Memory Disney Princess Edition. Like the Memory Toy Story Edition, the game comes with 72 tiles. However, these tiles include the images not only of Disney princesses, such as Ariel, Pocahontas and Jasmine, but other characters as well, including Flounder from "The Little Mermaid" and the Genie from "Aladdin." Players can play a normal version of Memory with this game, or for added excitement, they can choose to award more points for matches of a Disney princess.
Turtle Shells
Turtle Shells is a memory board game based on colors. Made by International Playthings, this game is designed for children ages 3 and up. Players lay out the 27 cards facedown. Players choose a turtle with a colored shell and then roll the colored dice; the player whose color is rolled gets to choose one card to flip over. If that card matches the player's color, he or she gets to keep that card; if no match is found, he or she must turn the card back over.
