There are literally thousands of different card games that are regularly played by many people in the world. Poker is played by many people of all ages and is probably the most commonly known game. Solitaire is a game played by a single player and is almost as popular as poker.
Bridge is another well known game although it is losing the status it once had along with all other types of game play with cards. However, there are several games that are simple and easy to play. Go Fish is one of the oldest games around.
Each player gets seven cards and proceeds each turn by choosing one other player and asking them if they have a specific card. If the other player has that card they must hand it to one who asked. But, if the player does not have the card they were asked for then the asking player must Go Fish and take a single card from the deck in the middle.
The point is to build pairs and the player who has the most pairs at the end wins. Old Maid is a simple game to play and all you need to do is go through a regular deck of cards and remove three of the four queens if you are playing with two players.
No more than four should play and you should have a queen for everyone playing minus one. Then you deal out seven cards to each player and set the rest of the deck in the center of the playing area. Then you take turns and choose to draw from the deck or from the hand of another player.
The only queen left is known as the Old Maid and when all of the pairs are made, and laid out, the one left with the Old Maid card is the loser. If you are looking for card games for children then those two games are perfect. The children will love them and adults like to play them as well.

How Credit Card Jumping Affects Your Credit Rating
Credit card jumping (or rate surfing) is becoming more widespread as people struggle to keep on top of the mountains of debt they have amassed. It's called credit card jumping because people jump from credit card to credit card, taking advantage of the best deals on offer.
How Credit Card Jumping Works
It works like this. Suppose you pay for your new car, DVD recorder or stereo using your old credit card. After the interest free period of around 56 days (less on some cards) you will have to pay interest on the outstanding balance. This can range from under 8% to well over 23% depending on the credit card you have. And most of the money you pay back each month will pay off interest rather than reducing the principal.
Credit card jumping offers a solution. Most credit card companies offer reduced interest rates to new customers. This can be a long term low interest rate or a 0% interest rate for a period of up to 12 months. This means that during this period credit card customers are reducing the principal when they make repayments. This will help to reduce their overall indebtedness.
Shopping For A 0% Credit Card
To get a 0% credit card, consumers just need to shop around. They can visit one of the many comparison websites to find the best deal. Many credit card companies also offer other incentives such as money-off vouchers, cash back rewards and discounted insurance.
The 'jumping' part comes when the 0% offer runs out. Canny consumers will apply for a new credit card about a month before the old offer runs out. This leaves plenty of time to get the new credit card and transfer any balances on to it to take advantage of the new offer. Consumers can do this any number of times.
What About My Credit Rating?
The key to keeping a good credit rating is to always pay at least the minimum amount that is listed on the statement. This must also be paid on time and consumers should never exceed their credit limit. It is also important to keep the old cards even after the balance has moved to another card. Old credit cards show people's credit history and improve their credit rating.
How Companies Protect Against Credit Card Jumpers
When 0% interest offers first appeared, credit card companies did not realise the implications. They lost hundreds of thousands of pounds of potential interest. Now there's a strategy in place to make credit card jumping less attractive. This is the balance transfer fee.
The balance transfer fee is a new charge imposed by credit card companies whenever consumers transfer a balance to a new credit card. The rate for this is around 2%. This means that credit card companies get their money up front. There are still some cards that do not charge a balance transfer fee, so it's worth shopping around while they last.
