<\/a><\/p>\nThis is a great card game for toddlers, designed specifically with them in mind.

<\/a><\/h3>\nDeer in the Headlights<\/a>\u00a0is one of those fun card games that is easy for the entire family to learn. Players need to discard all their cards in order to win a round; a ‘running deer’ can help you get rid of cards and rolling a ‘car’ lets you pass off cards to your friends but a ‘deer in the headlights’, well that’s just trouble. From losing a turn, to being frozen out the game, you want to watch out for those deers.<\/p>\nRecommended Age:\u00a0<\/strong>8 years +<\/p>\n9.\u00a04 Classic Children’s Card Games with 2 Hands-Free Card Holders<\/a>![\"Set](\"https:\/\/www.fractuslearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/card11-1-e1478605530437.jpg\" "\\"fun")
<\/a><\/h3>\nMy kids love card games but I noticed when they were younger they battled to hold the cards, without them falling all over the place and so this set with four classic card games<\/a> plus the nifty holders, is the perfect way to encourage a love of games and family time.

<\/a><\/h3>\nUNO Attack!<\/a>\u00a0is the extreme version of the classic game we know and love; it includes an electronic card shooter which adds to the excitement. If you can’t match a card in your pile with a card from your deck you have to push the launcher button; if luck’s on your side nothing happens but if it’s not, the rapid fire machine launches a whole lot of UNO Attack! cards.

<\/a><\/h3>\nHoliday time is soon upon us and weekends happen all the time, so I thought this is a great game to include. KinderPerfect<\/a> is a fun card game for all frazzled parents out there, turning the everyday pain of parenting into an excuse for mum (or dad) juice. There is a ‘parent’ player who reads out a red question card, the other players use their white answer cards and the ‘parent’ picks the one they like best; for no reason other than because they said so. The winner is the person with the most amount of useless parenting question cards. Like in real life!<\/p>\n
