Turn learning into a game of discovery with our Backyard Nature Matching Game. This set of 24 cards features 12 pairs of original, hand-painted gouache illustrations by Stephanie, showcasing the simple wonders of nature—from fireflies and mushrooms to foxes and sunflowers.
Matching is a foundational early math skill that helps children learn to sort, classify, and concentrate. Whether played as a classic memory game or used as identification cards for a backyard scavenger hunt, this set offers a tactile and artistic way to connect with the environment. Each card is crafted with a soft-touch finish and rounded corners, making them as pleasant to hold as they are beautiful to look at.
Why Families Love It:
Artisan Design: Features 12 unique matching pairs (24 cards), illustrated by Stephanie.
Skill Building: Promotes memory, focus, and visual discrimination in a screen-free format.
Premium Feel: Printed on thick, high-quality cardstock with a satin soft-touch finish for extra durability.
Eco-Friendly & Sustainable: Made with biodegradable and recyclable materials, including 100% compostable packaging.
Perfect Travel Size: The 2.5" x 2.5" cards are easy for small hands to manage and perfect for taking on trips or to the park. Matching is a key early childhood math skill that helps kids sort and classify objects. To play, lay the cards face down in a grid. Each player will take turns flipping over two cards, trying to find matching images. The player who collects the most pairs wins the game!
