Use this game to reinforce note and rest values, time signatures and metre

How to use this game

• Print and cut out the playing cards you would like to use - print out 2 or 3 copies of each set to make the game last longer. Mix and match sets to tailor the game to the players level
• Shuffle the cards and divide between the players
• Players take turns to place a card face up in a pile - if a card has the same time signature as the previous one the first player to shout ‘Snap’ takes the pile of played cards.
• To be a ‘Snap’ the cards do not have to have the same rhythm - they should both have the same time signature (3/4 or 4/4)
• The player with the most cards at the end of the game is the winner
• If a player puts down a smiley face card they may take all the cards in the pile
• If a player puts down a snowflake card the player to their right may take all the cards in the pile
• Laminate for extra durability
