Dear Friend,

Since you’ve found this website I suppose it’s ok to let you know… “I love to play poker with my family.” The truth is, I’m always on the internet looking for kids' card games. That’s what led me to put this website up. Let me explain…

While surfing around the internet, I stumbled upon something so fantastic that it immediately got my attention… In fact, I discovered something sooo amazing that at first I thought it was "too good to be true" like most things are.

You see, I was doing some research on Alfred Sheinwold, one of the most well known card games creators in recent history. I noticed that most of his work was available and accounted for with the exception of one of his most important pieces of work, ‘Best Card Games For Kids’.

Well, this got me curious and so I started digging a little deeper. I started to send off a few emails asking questions, but unfortunately, every road I seemed to head down was a dead end… until a couple of weeks ago that is…

By a stroke of luck, I emailed my story to one of my favorite site’s webmasters… as it turned out he had an old copy of this difficult to find book - it was right under my damn nose. After numerous emails I finally got him to mail me his copy.

Even though it was first published in 1956, this book has the best information on family card games I have ever seen.

In the 10 chapters here’s just a snippet of what you’ll learn:

• How to play card games for young children—learn how to play great little games like—my bee buzzes, my star twinkles, pigs and lots more.
• How to toss cards into a hat—best with 2-3 players, this is whole lot different to traditional card games. But you’ll get heaps of fun playing it.
• The treasure hunt game—another great game, one that will keep them on their toes.
• What the war games are—it’s not what you think, you will not be teaching your kids about war. Like ‘slapjack’ a great game that will get the kids wanting to win all the cards.
• Why ‘snap’ is so popular—a good game for the younger ones, see who can find the same two cards.
• How to play ‘beat the neighbor’—using the Aces and Picture cards you have to find the first one with either the Ace or Picture card. A bit different but interesting game.
• What Animals is all about—a good game for 5-6 players, this is a real ‘interactive’ game having the kids naming themselves a name of an animal.

And there’s loads more…

At this point, you might be wondering how you can get your hands on a copy…

Well here’s the good news.

After doing even more research (I told you I was an card playing addict) I have contacted the original copyright owners and gained permission to republish Alfred Sheinwold’s complete work on this website.

Card playing is my passion and I want to share it with as many people as possible. Believe it or not, I’ve decided to do something completely unheard of these days. I’m going to let you have this amazing manuscript for nothing.

It’s FREE… Yes 100% FREE

Now you have no excuse for not being able to play heaps of card games and have the kids playing games for hours on end.

So without any further adieu, let’s get started...
