It’s a race to win the game! Each player tries to fill their Alphabet Grab game board with seven musical alphabet cards before their opponents. The game is for 2 to 4 players, ages 6 and up.
The game includes one Alphabet Grab game board, 32 note cards, 3 wild cards, and instructions.
Alphabet Grab™ | Music Note Name Game
To set up the game:
- Print one game board and eight note cards per player (e.g., for 3 players, use 24 cards).
- Cut out the note cards and wild cards.
- Place the note cards and three monkey wrench cards upside down in the middle of the table, arranged like a grid similar to the game of Memory.
The goal of the game is to be the first player to fill their Alphabet Grab game board with all seven notes, matching the notes to the letters.
Instructions How to Play:
- The first player draws a card.
- If they correctly name the note, they place it on their Alphabet Grab game board.
- If they name the note incorrectly, they return the card to its original position.
- If the player draws a note they have already added to their board, they must return it to its original position.
The deck also includes three monkey wrench cards to add excitement:
- “Read ‘Em or Weap”: The player who draws this card must name all the notes on the opponent’s card to the right to avoid losing a card. Miss one note, and your opponent may take one of your cards to fill their game board.
- “Wild Card”: The player who draws this card can use it to fill any space on their Alphabet Grab game board. It can be moved to any letter throughout the game.
- “Wipe Out”: The player who draws this card must draw a second card and correctly name that note to stay in the game. If they name the note incorrectly, the game ends for this player.
Modified Game
For younger players, you can modify the game by limiting the cards to treble clef notes, bass clef notes, or a select set based on the notes in their music book. This makes the game easier and more suitable for their skill level.
