Hi all,

last week my son's teacher asked whether there were dads who wanted to come and talk about their daytime job in class. Although I drop off the kids at school in the morning (not every day) I don't get to spend a lot of time with them in and around school. Therefor I thought it was a nice idea and proposed to put a Surface table in their classroom for the day.

This Sunday I spent a couple of hours creating two very basic games that they could play on the machine.

The first one is a version of the game memory, the second one is a sound-based game. All in all I spent around five hours developping both games, so don't expect high-end games ! But I achieved my goals: the kids had a wonderfull time !

I have added some screenshots, some pictures from the day itself and a zip file containing the code.

 Memory Game (three player mode)

 

 Memory game (using colors as cards)

 

 Sound game (try to remember the order of the sounds played by the app)

Maybe you can have some fun time with your kids and these games as well.

Enjoy !
