By Brainbox This is a great way to introduce a young audience to the works of William Shakespeare in a fun and engaging way. Each of the cards in this game depict a scene from a famous Shakespearean play. There is also a quotation and a caption to explain what is happening in the plot. You study the card and then answer questions about it from memory! How much will you remember? When the cards are placed in order they then tell the story of the play. The plays include A Midsummers Night's Dream, Hamlet, Julius Caesar, Macbeth, Romeo & Juliet, The Tempest and Twelfth Night. This is a game for grandparents and wider family to all enjoy. It's a great way to improve observation and memory skills, and to familiarise yourself with the works of the great Shakespeare. Suitable from: Suggested 8 years +
