Printable Ocean Memory Game

DIRECTIONS: 1) Print 2 copies of the tile sheets 2) Print 4 copies of the pattern sheet 3) Use double sided tape to adhere pattern sheets to the back of the tile sheets. 4) Trim the tiles. You will have 24 tiles, 2 of each design. 5) Use as many matching sets of tiles as you like for the game. If your child is younger, maybe start with 6 designs (12 tiles). If you're up for the challenge, use all 24! HOW TO PLAY: 1) Choose the tiles you wish to play with and shuffle them. Make sure you use two of each design in the pile. 2) Place the tiles face down on the floor or table in a grid formation. The pattern backs should face upwards to hide the tile character.  3) Take turns flipping over two tiles at a time. 4) If you find a match, collect the tiles to keep in your pile. 5) If you do not find a match, turn the tiles over and the next person takes their turn. 6) Play until all the tiles are gone. The player who has the most tiles in their pile, WINS! For best results, print on heavier stock paper. Time to celebrate!
