Fast card game in which players need to find nativity story characters and items and name them. Only 1 symbol between two cards is the same. Who can see it and name it first?

Cards are distributed between players. One card is placed in the middle. Players hold their cards as a pile with the top card showing symbols. The player who can first find the matching symbol between his top card and the card in the middle calls out that symbol and places his top card in the middle. Now the matching symbol of that card with the players’ top cards has to be found. The player who manages to get rid of all his cards first is the winner.

30 cards with 6 symbols each.

Great as starter / plenary activity in RE lessons or for form time during advent /Christmas season.
