    What our PLAY CARD Clubbies have to say...

    I wish this was available years ago!
    Best deck of cards we’ve ever owned! Simple play ideas for the whole family, and absolutely achievable without having to go shopping for supplies. I can’t recommend The Play Card highly enough! We’ll definitely keep adding more to our collection.

    The Play Card Company creates a fun family card game that inspires simple play

    WHAT ARE PLAY CARDS?

    Each card has a fun, simple activity designed specifically for you child’s developmental stage. None of our inspired decks have an age range because we embrace the knowledge that each child is different.

    Every idea uses normal, household items so you never have to pay a visit to your local, exotic sphinx dealer. Each idea has been tried and tested by parents, primary school teachers and play enthusiasts over the last 30 years.

    That’s how we know they work!

    HOW DO WE USE THEM?

    You’re probably picturing chunks of eggshell in the cake batter, but don’t worry. That’s not what the play recipes are.

    More from our wonderful families...

    As a FTM it was hard to come up with ideas (especially during lockdown!). These cards are great and use items we already had lying around the house. Highly recommended and great gift idea.

    Fun and engaging play ideas made EASY!
    It can be hard to think up different ideas to engage our beautiful baby boy, and this can take away from the fun of just enjoying time with him. This deck is awesome because you don’t have to waste any precious time thinking of activities or getting lost in a google rabbit hole! Love the simplicity of the cards and watching our little man smile and learn. Excited to try out the other decks as he grows! What an amazing product

    This pack is a lifesaver!

    This pack is a lifesaver! I bought these while in lockdown and they have been used to spark fun everyday in our house! My very energetic toddler (3) loves the activities. The cards are clear and well written and, as a teacher, I love how they highlight the skills learned with each activity. Have already bought some for my friends and will be recommending these cards to all my friends with young learners!

    I bought these as a gift for my hubby for Father's Day and he loved them! As a gift, to be able to inspire my husband in different play ideas for our kids, it is life changing!

    Awesome Tummy Time Activities!!!!

    The simplest yet mesmerizing activities for your newborn in this pack. We just adore how easy it is to find the items the activity needs because they are just household items. Beautiful moments of play for your baby in this pack!

    So much fun! As a grandma looking after 2 little people under school age, a couple of days a week, we looked for inspiration. The Play Card Co., brings this in spades. These cards add to our collective laughter every single day! Thank you

    Excellent resource to utilise anywhere.

    Excellent resource to utilise anywhere. Everything you need is any household item.

    The “Silent Assassin” stopped in his tracks.

    Parenting a SA comes with lulls of boredom and quiet. Usually the two create a perfect storm of disaster. Enter: The Play Card. Simple play activities to engage your SA in using the washing basket for bunnies instead of trashing the newly folded washing basket. Guaranteed fun for everyone in the whole home—doggos included, but not harassed!

    Encoraging play

    These cards have entertained my 5 year old for hours. There is no more boredom he goes and gets a card amd asks to play.

    Danniell

    Fantastic resource for new parents

    The great thing with these play cards is the teacher talk and tips on the back of the card. It also has ideas on how to extend the activities to suit your growing baby. I’m excited to start playing with my tummy timer soon.

    Easy and inclusive for toddlers!

    The Taby cards have been in our lives for only a short time but we’ve already played our way through lots of the simple and easy to setup activities. I’ve been able to give my twins the choice of what activity to try as all of them are simple enough and have resources we have at home already. A must have during lockdown and for tired parents looking for quick activity ideas.
