Donkey (card game)

This was a fun card game that we had in our house. We played it constantly on holidays – wet British holidays!

The idea of the game was simple, you had to try and collect four cars of the same rank – i.e four kings, or 4 tens etc. To play the game each person passes a card to their left. But the pack was made specially and had pictures of animals on it instead of the usual playing card symbols.

Once one player has done this they should raise his or her thumb silently. The other players should copy the gesture. The player who turns to be the last is called “Donkey”.
