About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey everyone! Ready for a supermarket adventure without leaving home? In Shopping List, the goal is to be the first to fill your shopping trolley with all the items on your list. It's a super fun memory game, perfect for kids, and it's even won 'Best Toy' awards. The dynamic is really simple, but just challenging enough for little ones. Each player grabs their trolley and a shopping list, and the food cards are spread face-down on the table, just like in a classic memory game. On your turn, you flip over a card. If the food item you found is on your list, hooray! It goes straight into your trolley. But if it's not what you need, the card goes back to its spot, face-down, and that's where memory comes into play! You need to remember where other players flipped cards that weren't useful to them, because they might be useful to you later. The game continues at this enjoyable pace until someone manages to complete their list, filling their trolley with everything they need. It's a fun race and a great way to exercise the memory and concentration of little ones, all while simulating an everyday task in a playful way. Get ready to flip many cards and hope to find the milk, bread, or apple missing from your list!
