Weights & Measures

A game in the tradition of Happy Families but this has sets in varying numbers of cards. I expect parents saw an educational value in the game and they were right to do so.

There are 9 sets in all, each giving examples of a type of measure. The sets range from 3 cards to 7 cards. In your turn, you may ask any other player for a card in one set but you must have at least one card from that set in your hand. If you complete a set, lay it in front of you. When all the sets have been collected, the player who has most in front of him, wins.

The nine sets are:
Cubic Measure
Troy Weight
Apothecaries' Weight
Dry Measure
Measure of Time
Long Measure
Square Measure
Avoirdupois Weight
