About Find the Pair

Find the Pair is a memory game made for the very young. There are only 4, 5 or 6 pairs, and the cards are so big that small fingers can easily hit them. The cards show happy animals and fruits: cat, dog, pig, duck, frog, rabbit, apple, banana and more.

You take turns turning over two cards. If they match, they light up in your colour and stars fly over to you. If they don’t match, the cards stay face up for a moment so everyone has time to see them before they turn back over. If you like, the iPad says the name of what’s on the card.

The game is made for a child to play together with a grown-up or a brother or sister. There’s no clock and no loser – when all the pairs are found, everyone gets a star. You can also choose to show all the cards for a moment at the start to make it a little easier.

How to play

  1. Choose how many are playing, the number of pairs and whether you want animals, fruit or both.
  2. Lay the iPad flat on the table. The glowing colour at the bottom shows whose turn it is.
  3. Turn over two cards. If they match, you win the pair. If not, they turn back over after a moment.
  4. The turn moves on after every try. When all the pairs are found, everyone gets a star.

Questions about Find the Pair

What age is Find the Pair for?

From about age 2, together with a grown-up. You don’t need to read – it’s all pictures, colours and sounds.

Can you play alone?

No. Find the Pair is made to be played together with a grown-up or a brother or sister, so you need at least two players. GameBase is all about being together in the same room.

Can you lose?

No. There’s no clock and no points to lose. Everyone gets a star when all the pairs are found, even if they didn’t find a pair themselves.

How many cards are there?

You choose 4, 5 or 6 pairs, so 8, 10 or 12 cards. For the youngest, 4 pairs is a good place to start.

What’s the difference between Find the Pair and a regular memory game?

The cards are much bigger, there are fewer pairs, and the turn always moves on after every try, so everyone gets the same number of turns. That suits small children better.
