This memory game was made by making little balls of model magic, and using our stamps to flatten them. We used each stamp twice to make a matching game. Johnny doesn’t get the concept of memory yet, so he and Emma played an “I Spy” version where they tried to find the most matches with the pieces face up.
Many thanks to Mama King for inspiring us to use stamps with model magic in this post!

Fun idea! Kaia has almost used up all the Model Magic she got for her birthday last October, but this is an idea that just might be worthy of the last bits!! I’ll have to see what she thinks.
What a great idea, they look so satisfyingly tactile. I bet it would be fun to use leaves to make a leaf print matching game too.
that’s a cute idea!

That’s so cool. I imagine model magic would make lovely pieces for any game. I’ve been wanting to get some for my inner child.
I really have to get Model Magic one of these days – everyone is raving about it. It’s sweet that Emma and Johnny play so well together.

Oh yeah! I am glad you tried making them. So fun to make! It also sounds like you had much more straight forward rules to your game! Hah! We will have to make them in pairs and try your game. Thanks :-)
