hairy maclary game


Using the images from here I made up this simple card game.  I would make a .pdf for download but I have a feeling that this would be a serious breach of copyright.  But here is how I made ours for our own personal use.

The object is for the players to attempt to collect all six dogs featured in the Hairy Maclary story.
Each player has one long card with the pictures of the six dogs.
The remainder of the cards are shuffled and placed face down between the players.
Players take it in turns to take a card from a pile.  If it is a dog they still have to collect then they can add it to their collection.
If not they put it back in the middle.
If it is Scarface Claw then they have to remove one of their cards.
Winner is the first player to collect all six dogs
We made six of each dog for the single picture cards and only three of Scarface.
Let the game begin!

Letter D: D is for Dog: Hairy Maclary from Donaldsons Dairy

Hairy Maclary From Donaldsons Dairy is the first in a series of book by New Zealand author Lynley Dodd.  In the story Hairy Maclary goes on a walk with all his friends until he meets Scarface Claw the toughest tom in town who scares all the dogs so much that they run back home.  It is filled with lots of lovely rhyme and repetition; at the end of each page is the phrase "and Hairy Maclary from Donaldsons Dairy" guaranteed to get the kids chiming in.

Here are my resources for using with this book this week:
