Howdy partner!!
Test your memory and learn about nine of the Acropolis Museum horses!!! By cutting out a set of 2 cards for each horse exhibit included, you can make your own Memory Game to play by yourself or with friends!
And neigh, oops I mean hey!! Τhere's a surprise at the end too!
Where do you think you might find horses in the Museum? Well basically, everywhere! The ancient Greeks loved horses and in the most distant past you will find them paraded on coins, various vases and vessels, inscriptions and lots of other ancient objects made of clay, bronze and marble. Considered in myth to be children of the god Poseidon, some horses were thought to have special powers and some had unique features: for example the Centaurs that were half horse and half man and Pegasus that had wings
These special horses had godly origins! And in addition to keeping company with the Olympian Gods they also spent time with humans. Now you have a game that gives you the opportunity to get to know nine of these horses better and play a game of memory that needs a lot of …horse power!
You can make the game with paper or challenge yourself with the digital version of the game.
Before you start making the game read the directions carefully.
Print the sheets with the front side of the cards twice (pages 1 to 3, the ones with the horses) and the sheets with the back view (page 4) six times. Don’t forget to print the sheet with the pattern of the box too! You will be able to use the box to store your cards.
Cut the cards and the box out carefully with the scissors.
Paste a back card to each front card to make the final playing cards. You should have 18 cards at the end.
Construct the box following the directions on the paper. Your memory game is ready!
Let’s start the game. Shuffle the cards and spread them on a flat surface in rows with the horse picture face down.
The first player flips two cards face up (first one then the other). If the cards are the same, Player 1 continues and flips two more cards up. If the cards do not match then Player 1 turns the cards back, face down, and it is the next player‘s turn.
The winner is the player with the most matching pairs
Tips: If you have more than four players print two sets of cards so that you have a total of 36 cards. If you use thicker paper, the cards will last longer.
