We have lots of Family Game Nights in this house. Sometimes it is the Wii and some times board games and card games. Jacob has such a hard time holding his cards in his hand so that he can see everything and at the same time - not show everyone else what he has! Sometimes it gets frustrating for all of us...
I saw something like this on the internet at Making It Feel Like Home and thought it would save us ALL lots of headaches! :)
I eat LOTS of oatmeal so I used two of the plastic lids
I just laid them on top of each other with the flat sides together. Put in about 3 staples going across right under the middle of the circle. Then I glued the lids together - both at the staples and under them down to the edge of the lid.
Then I glued some paper on the lids because of the staples. Didn't want Jacob getting "poked" or more likely - pulling them out!
And VIOLA - we are ready for the next game night; probably this weekend!
Who knew something so simple would work wonders

How clever!!! My son put his flat in a row on the table... it takes forever :D
Very clever, I love that idea!
My great-grandma made these card holders waaaaaay back in the 1960s-70s. She put a brad through the center. I used them all the time when she taught me how to play Canasta.
