You deal out some cards. The number of cards for each player is determined by how old the player is. Younger kids can play with 4 cards (each) so that the hand is not too much. You can play with 5 or 6 too, the game still works the same way. Then a PLAYER who starts the game asks for one of the cards from the OPPONENT's hand The player MUST ask for one of the cards in their HAND. If that person has it, THE OPPONENT hands them the card
and they lay the two cards on the table. This is a point. If they don't, and honesty is important, they say GO FISH and PLAYER draws a card from the top of the deck. IF this card is the card that they just asked for they get to ask again, OTHERWISE it is the other players turn. THEY get to ask for a card in their hand. The game continues until EITHER someone runs out of cards in which case they draw another and keep playing, or all the cards are played. At this time each player counts the cards and the winner is the one with the most pairs. Smaller children can play without counting the "tricks".
This is a good memory and numbers game for children.
Thank you for the good (old) memories of happily playing cards.

Players
2 to 6 players, best with 3 to 6.
Deck
Standard 52-card deck.
Goal
To collect the most sets of four.
Setup
Five cards are dealt to each player if three to six players are involved. With only two players, seven cards are dealt to each.
All remaining cards are placed face down in a draw pile.
Gameplay
Randomly choose a player to go first.
On your turn, ask a player for a specific card rank. For example: "Barb, please give me your 9s." You must already hold at least one card of the requested rank.
If the player you ask has any cards of the requested rank, she must give all of her cards of that rank to you. In the example, Barb would have to give you all of her 9s.
If you get one or more cards from the player you ask, you get another turn. You may ask any player for any rank you already hold, including the same one you just asked for.
If the person you ask has no relevant cards, they say, "Go fish." You then draw the top card from the draw pile.
If you happen to draw a card of the rank asked for, show it to the other players and you get another turn. However, if you draw a card that's not the rank you asked for, it becomes the next player's turn. You keep the drawn card, whatever rank it is.
NOTE: The "next player" is the one who said "Go fish."
When you collect a set of four cards of the same rank, immediately show the set to the other players and place the four cards face down in front of yourself.
Winning
Go Fish continues until either someone has no cards left in their hand or the draw pile runs out. The winner is the player who then has the most sets of four.
Variant One: Specific Card
Rather than asking for a rank, you must ask for a specific card. You must already hold at least one card of that rank. For example: "Charlie, please give me the king of clubs." If Charlie has it, he gives it to you and you go again. Otherwise, he says "go fish" and you draw from the draw pile. If you happen to draw the card you asked for, you get another turn. If you draw anything else, it is now the next player's turn.
Before playing this way, all players should agree whether you can ask for a card you already have in your hand. (If you ask for such a card, you'll have to go fish and your turn will end -- but it might benefit you to do this so the other players think you don't hold that particular card.)
Variant Two: Keep Playing
When the draw pile runs out, keep playing until all of the cards have been made into sets of four. When the draw pile is exhausted, no one says "Go fish." If you ask someone for a card she doesn't have, it becomes her turn.
