The aim of the game is to create as many kids as possible. It’s possible to mix nations, which makes the results more diverse. Kids consisting of pieces from all four countries count double.

Instruction: All pieces are placed on the table, face – down. Players take turns drawing pieces from the table and collect them, face-up. They try to get all kinds of pieces to create as many kids as possible.

 

Preparation: To create the material, download the empty templates.

 

colour the figures in the colours of your country or add items that allow the players to see in each of the four parts which country the figure is from.

Here you can download the coloured material of all partners.

 

Cut each figure into four pieces. You will find out that all pieces have the same size, so that players can't recognize in advance what they will get. They may have to take more than four pieces before they can complete a figure.

 

Tarsia puzzle

Players: two or more

Instruction: All triangles are placed on the table, face – down. One piece is turned and put into the centre. Each player takes three pieces.

The aim of the game is to add all your triangles to the ones already open. Each round, you can add one piece. Be careful; the triangles have to match.

 If a player cannot add one of their pieces to what is already open on the table, they take another triangle from the face-down pile.

Who manages to add all their triangles first is the winner.

Spot the twins

players: two or more

The aim of the game is to be the first to spot the identical symbols and either collect or drop cards.

Get them all

Each player gets one card, puts it in front of themselves, face down.

The remaining cards are on a pile in the middle of the table, face up.

The players turn their card and check what the identical symbol with the card on the deck is. They name the symbol and take the card from the deck. 

The players repeat that action until all cards from the deck are taken.

The winner is the player who wins most cards.

 

cards with symbols

Lose them all

One card is placed in the middle of the table, face down.

The rest of the cards is dealt equally among the players. The players keep the cards on a pile in front of them, face up.

Turn the card in the middle. Now players identify the identical symbols and name them. The first one doing so drops his/her card on top of the card in the centre, it becomes the new card to compare with. 

When the first player has dropped all his/her cards, the game is over.
