Create your own Memory style matching game with cereal boxes.

Open and flatten out your old brightly colored cereal, and other food, boxes. Choose about 6 different solid colors and cut out 2 pairs of same-size squares or circles from each. I used a circle cutter to get uniform shapes with guaranteed smooth edges. Let your children turn over the pieces, shuffle them, lay them out, and start matching.

Check back next Friday for Part 2 in this Cereal Box series!
