Start with the ace

Deal out all of the cards. You can lay them on the floor if you can’t hold all of

them.

Someone who has the Ace of Hearts lays it down and then you take it in turns

to lay down the cards in order. You can only play the next card in a suit or an

ace

There should be 4 piles for the 4 suits.

You may lay down an Ace, or put down the next number in sequence 2,3,4 and

so on.

The winner is the first person to lay down all of their cards.

Play again but lay the King of Hearts first and work backwards!
