Old Maid Cards – 1 Nov. 2001

Bought for my granddaughter aged 9 this has proved to be such a fun purchase. I told her I could remember playing this as a child and so we made the purchase. Nobody wants to be the 'Old Maid' so the attempts to avoid getting the card and the greater, and sneakier, attempts to fool somebody into picking the card have caused a lot of hilarity! Also, the pack is well portable and would be easy to take on holiday or on visits to friends and grandparents. Well worth the price!

This must be my five year old's favourite game. So very simple it can be picked up by younger children with some support. Unfortunately my daughter thinks it is cool to end up with the old maid and tries to hold on to it when you are picking a card from her. All in all we have had great fun with this game which is small enough to be tucked into a suitcase and yet still provide great enjoyment.

This proves that you don't have to spend a fortune to have fun. My five year old absolutely loves this and never tires of playing. The cards are good quality and size and it is the perfect game for passing the time anywhere and everywhere - I never leave home without it. Suitable for any number of players of all ages.

Out 7 year old grandson is playing Uno and our 5 year old granddaughter wanted to play it too. Only problem is she can't read yet. So I remembered this game from when I was a child so I bought it for them to play together and they love it.

Bought this to take away with us on holiday to entertain my 7 year old at night. She loved it, as did lots of other kids. We were surrounded by children every night wanting to play this and another game (go fish) we had bought. The quality is ok, not fantastic but certainly very good for the cost of the item. Lots of fun for my little girl and her friends.

great game for the family andother children who have played this with us have had fun too. you don't want to select the old maid card and my 9 year old daughter needs to practice keeping a neutral facial expression when she does

Bought this as a xmas present, so not opened yet. Expecting it to be the same as it has been for many yrs.

Great, modern day version of the classic.Fun, family game to play.Perfect entertainer.
