Farmyard Heads and Tails
For very young children aged 18 months and over, Farmyard Heads and Tails is a really simple game which toddlers can enjoy on their own or with other players.
Featuring twelve colourful farm characters and objects to match, the game encourages observational and memory skills whilst introducing very young children to the concept of turn taking! The large, wipe clean cards are ideal for little hands.
Levels of Play
Pairs Activity
Very young children can start off by playing as a simple matching pairs activity with the big, chunky cards.
Twelve Matching Pairs
Children can keep matching up the cards until they have found all 12 friendly farmyard pairs.
First Game
As children develop in confidence and ability, they can play as a more challenging memory game by turning all the cards face down and matching the pairs.

Farmyard Heads and Tails can begin as a fun pairs activity before developing into a first game.
Encourages Observational Skills
Young children will love the bold and colourful illustrations which feature friendly farmyard characters. Children can be prompted to say the words out loud as they spot the different characters!
