How to Connect

We all love to connect but it's sometimes more challenging across the generations.

Want to know how someone got to school in the 40s or 50s, what they felt about their first kiss or their first job, how they wore their hair and their clothes - or what they did on weekends? 

Many Happy Returns Chatterbox 1940s and 1950s card games are a perfect answer.

The 1940s cards are for sharing with people in their 70s. The 1950s cards target people in their 60s and over. They help make conversation, sharing and enjoying people's memories of past decades instant, easy, vibrant - and often amusing and revealing.

Older people say that they remember things that they haven't thought about for years because the cards make interaction with younger people both easier and richer experiences.

Each box contains 26 large-size cards with carefully researched photographs of everyday items and subjects from the decade, such as playing around, life at home and at school, hairdos and housework, toys and TV.

Brief descriptions and questions help get conversation going and the cards are easy to use as they can be used in any order, one-to-one, or in a small group.
