This can be very tricky at times, but if it gets easy for your child just add more pairs of cards to your deck to add more difficulty. I let the kids analyze the cards for a bit then I stack the deck back up and they use their deck to make the sequence of cards that I made. Memory: For this memory game I take 8 pairs of cards that match from the Old Maid deck, split them up into two decks making sure that there are no pairs in each deck, then I place one of the decks in a particular sequence. Be sure to remove the Old Maid once it’s been found.Ģ. Play w/ Old Maid Card: If a player turns the Old Maid over they get an extra turn that round.

Truth is… we have NEVER actually played Old Maid with them. We love getting out our deck of Old Maid cards and just playing with them.
