Game Time - Angry Birds

Junior got the Angry Birds card game for Christmas. He has been sick so we haven't had a chance to play it but I did find a few minutes today to read the instructions and figure out how to make it work for Junior.
We changed the game some and adapted it for Junior's needs.

The first step was adapting the dice to work on the switch adapted spinner.
I photo copied each side of the dice on 200%. The dice make the scanner cover stay open causing it to make a large part of the copy black which wasted a lot of ink. To avoid this I first put a sheet of white paper in the scanner with a small square cut out to set the dice in. I then cut out the copied dice picture and recopied it again at 200%.
I then used contact paper to laminate each square
I attached velcro to the back of each card so it could attach to the game spinner
The game has what they call power cards which can be used during the game. The way these are used is not something that would work for Junior so we picked out a couple of them and added them to the spinner. Changes the game a bit but doesn't change the "fun" factor.
I placed velcro on the back of the playing cards so they can be set up for the game. Each player gets 6 cards and lines them up, this is their "castle". You spin to knock down your "castle" and the player who knocks down all their cards has to knock down the green bird/pig.
Playing the card game the typical way you would actually flick the dice to knock over the pig(picture above next to the playing cards, there is a little stand for it if you aren't velcroing it like we did). Flicking a dice is not optional for Junior and though I could do hand over hand with him I would rather he be able to play as independently as possible.
There are some green pig playing cards so we put velcro on the back of them and put them on the spinner at the end.
If the other person playing still has cards left we will just replace the "power cards" with the green pigs instead of putting them on the spinner alone.

Ready to play
This is how we adapted the game to work for Junior but I am sure there are lots of other ways to make it work for your child's needs. I remember seeing an adaption to hold playing cards easier on a blog(though I haven't had time to hunt down the post) for those with motor issues but who can use their hands.

Have you adapted games for your child's needs. I would love to see them and have you share them here so we can all learn.

Update: Thanks to Adapting Creatively for letting me know about their post on card holders. Here is the link: Card holders
