Go Fish (playing cards)


Recently I was going through a box I kept from teaching my eldest son. I came across a bunch of educational workbooks I can pass to the two smaller children. I even came across old flash cards I can actually use again. Among that stuff I came across the old "Go Fish" cards we used to play with our eldest son (now seventeen). There are four of each fish (two pairs) and each card gives different facts about that fish. I'm hoping to use the ISBN number to a few places in hopes of getting a few new decks. I originally found them in the dollar section of Michael's years back.


 



I am still pretty excited to come across more educational materials for the kids. They both started reading before school ever started, basic math, and probably could have skipped kindergarten. My youngest is competitive, thrives on learning more, and recently informed us he wants to find a job. My husband and I got a good laugh, than explained he can't work until he is sixteen (could at fourteen, but we don't want him to over extend himself and burn out). For now he does small chores at home to earn money, nice to brother, manners in public, reading/writing, or clothes in hamper.

    This is an updated version, still has actual fish, and facts to help learn while playing!!! My deck is about ten years old... and this one is basically the same (same brand, concept) and only $2.99 a deck... so worth it and cute
