Happy Families is a traditional card game, usually with a specially made set of picture cards, featuring illustrations of fictional families of four, most often based on occupation types. The object of the game is to collect complete families. The player whose turn it is asks another player for a specific card from the same family as a card that the player already has. If the asked player has the card, he gives it to the requester and the requester can then ask any player for another card. If the asked player does not have the card, it becomes his turn and he asks another player for a specific card. Play continues in this way until no families are separated among different players. The player with the most cards wins. One of the rules states that a player cannot ask for a certain card to deceive any player if he does not have a card in the set he is asking for. The game can be adapted for use with an ordinary set of playing cards (see Go Fish).
Happy Families is the debut album by British new wavesynthpop duo Blancmange. Originally released in the UK in September 1982, it reached number 30 on the UK albums chart, aided by the success of the album's third single, "Living on the Ceiling", released the following month and which became Blancmange's breakthrough hit, reaching number 7 in the UK singles chart.
Release
Initial pressings of the album in 1982 contained the original version of "Waves" – on later pressings and on the subsequent CD issues this version was replaced by the 7" single version, which had been remixed by Denis Weinrich and the band's manager John Owen Williams, and included re-recorded vocals and a string section arranged by Linton Naiff. The original version remained unavailable on any format until its inclusion on the 2012 compilation album The Very Best of Blancmange. The Canadian release of the album had a slightly rearranged running order and included a special mix of the song "Blind Vision", released as a single in May 1983 and which appeared on the group's second album Mange Tout in the UK in 1984.
Happy Families is a series of children's books written by Allan Ahlberg, inspired by the traditional card game Happy Families. Ahlberg worked with a number of illustrators and the books were published by Puffin Books. The series form a transition for children between picture books and chapter books. It is a popular series, having sold in excess of 2.6 million copies since its launch in 1980.
Media
A children's TV series based on the books, also called Happy Families, was produced by the BBC in the late 1980s.

Jay and Christy teach their kids that hard work and hard play go hand in hand. Each of their family members cooperates to complete chores and help the others. When the work is done, they celebrate. No matter what they are doing, spending time together is the part that makes it fun.
“Some people say it’s quality [of time] and not quantity—to some degree it is quantity too. So hopefully we’re doing a decent job at both,” Christy says with a laugh.

“What’s amazing is how the whole family has rallied around the whole soccer thing—including Mom. Mom is the loudest person we have,” says Nick’s dad, Neville.
When everyone is home after a busy day, the family can spend time making one of their favorite foods. Chapati is unleavened flatbread, a staple food in India. Tanya and Neville learned how to make it when they were young. Now, they pass the tradition and technique on to their children.
No matter the activity, the Pereiras have found that if it brings them together then it is always worth making time for.

Life can be unkind, I've seen it in your eyes I've loved you all my life, and loving you is fine But I won't let you go straight No I won't let you go Cos we're just one big happy family And we're not touched by the hands of tragedy And I'm so, so cold in here And I'm so, so alone in here And just a little vague For and on behalf of the people gathered here You know I've waited years, for this moment to pass One of these days, I'll have to get a life You know I don't do things right And I'm so bored in here For you I'll give, everything Everything that I have The night is on, the DJ’s gone There's only us, the friendly ones So take the bait, I just can't wait
