Make your cards: Print single-sided on thick, opaque paper or card. Choose A4 and “Actual size” / 100% for both pages so all cards have the same size. Colour matching pictures the same and cut along the dashed lines. Leave the backs blank. The previews above are the two pages of the same complete-game PDF.

Play Memory with a farmyard collection

Farm Animals Memory turns a set of friendly animal drawings into a matching game to colour and make. The collection includes a cow, pig, sheep, goat, horse, donkey, hen, duck, rabbit and dog. Every animal appears twice across the two printable sheets, creating ten identical pairs. The outline pictures give children room to choose colours before the cards become part of a shared game.

Take a moment to name the animals and look for details that help tell them apart. Compare the ears of the horse and donkey, notice the sheep's woolly outline or find the duck's feet. These observations give players more ways to remember a picture than its name alone. Children can describe an animal in their own words if an English name is still unfamiliar.

Prepare the matching copies together, using similar colours for both cards in each pair. After cutting, place the cards face down and follow the Memory rules linked above. When an animal is revealed, say its name or make a short description before the next choice. Keep the game focused on remembering where the pictures are, with time for every player to look.

The complete PDF contains two A4 pages with ten cards on each. Open it in a new tab, print both sheets single-sided on opaque paper or card and cut along the dashed outlines. Store the farm animals as one set for another day. For a shorter first game, choose a few complete pairs and add the remaining animals as players become more familiar with the collection.
