Make 10 Game

In this Video, Vera and Mrs. Cusimano teach how to play "make 10" with a deck of playing cards.

• You'll need to remove the FACE CARDS (jacks, queens and kings).

• Divide the remaining cards between the two players so you each have one pile with an equal amount of cards in it.

• Place 4 cards in front of you. See if you can "make 10". If you remove a combination of 10, you can place new cards in the missing spots.

• If you can't make 10, you can trade in ONE CARD to the bottom of your draw pile and put a new card face up in it's place. If you can now make 10, keep going :) If you can't, it's the next player's turn

• Keep playing until you can't make any more 10's. Whoever has the LEAST amount of cards left is the winner :)

Make 10 Pyramid

In this short video, I'll show you a game you can play all by yourself with a deck of cards.

• You'll need to remove the FACE CARDS (jacks, queens and kings).

• Put one card on the top row.

• Put two cards on the next row down.

• Put three cards on the next row down.

• Continue until you are at the bottom row with 6 cards.

• Starting with the bottom row, find cards that add up to 10 (Aces are worth 1). You cannot use a card that is covered up.

• If you are stuck, draw a card from the pile. See if you can use that card to help make 10.

• Keep going until you cannot make any more 10's. Whatever cards are left in your pyramid is your score. Lowest score "wins"!
