I enjoy playing card games with the boys and it's so fun to watch them learn and develop new thinking and reasoning skills. We are currently mostly playing games like Go Fish or Crazy 8's with card sets found at Dollar Tree (but Jacob also really enjoys Uno). These are awesome and usually come in packs of two - we have one that had Crazy 8's and Go Fish and another pack that they received as a gift that had Crazy 8's and Memory and each pack is only $1!! So far they're holding up quite nicely!
However, Jacob has finally gotten to the age where he understands that his hand of cards should be kept out of view of everyone else playing the game but at almost 6, his hand isn't quite big enough to pull of the feat of holding them all....
Enter, the card holder:
This has quickly become one of my favorite "gadgets" for having fun with littles. It seems to be even more helpful for Eli who is 3 and is constantly fidgety and always knocking his cards off the table. It helps him keep them all in one place and for Jacob it is helping him learn the art of keeping his hand hidden!
