Matching Things : A Snap Game

Keep your eyes peeled and collect all the Invisible Things as you play Matching Things from Petit Collage!

Keep your eyes peeled and collect all the Invisible Things as you play Matching Things from Petit Collage!

Created in collaboration with the team behind the New York Times bestselling book Invisible Things, this easy-to-learn card game is fun for the whole family. It’s also a great way to teach kids about the feelings, thoughts, sounds, and more they’ll encounter in the world without ever seeing them. 

In this wacky twist on the game of Snap, you’ll need to look closely to make matches and act fast to win. Spot a matching pair? Shout “SAME!” See two Whispers? Then whisper instead! Are there two Echoes? Say “ECHO, Echo, echo!” Suddenly see two Itches? Start itching! And if Gratitude shows up, get your hands in the air!

Made for 2 or more players, ages 6+, playing Snap improves observational skills and hand-eye coordination and develops patience and focus. Plus, this wonderfully imaginative version of the classic game offers a playful way to get kids talking and encourages screen-free play with friends.

The 52 game cards and English instructions come in a handy pocket-sized tin, so this is the ideal game to keep kids busy when you’re out and about. Whether at a restaurant, in a waiting room, or on a long journey, your child can take the fun with them wherever they go!

Made using FSC materials and packaged in a reusable and recyclable tin.

AIM OF THE GAME:
Collect all the Invisible Things!

HOW TO PLAY:
Shuffle the deck of Invisible Things cards and deal them out to all players—no peeking!
Take turns turning over the top card of your pile. If you see that it matches another faceup card on the table, shout “SAME!” If you’re the first to shout, you win the matching piles.
As you play, keep watch for Special Things, too: if two Whisper cards match, players must whisper “Same!” instead of shouting; if two Echo cards match, then players say “ECHO, Echo, echo,” starting loud and getting quieter; if two Itch cards match, players must pretend to itch; if two Gratitude cards match, players should throw their arms up in the air and say nothing at all.
Keep playing until someone collects all the Invisible Things and wins the game!
