English term or phrase: Pile up!

I know what 'Pile up' means, however, in this case the term appears as a game name...I've been trying to think of a cool/nice/inteligent/short name for the game in Portuguese. I've thought of several which don't actually seem to be 'right' for kids from 4 to 8.
The game: "your parent or a friend will show you one card at a time. Try to read the word on each card out loud. Whenever you read the word correctly, you get to keep the card. And if you miss a word, go ahead and give it a second try. If you miss it again, go on to the next card. You’re going to watch the pile of cards grow as you learn these words!"

Thanks in advance. :-)

2 hrs confidence:

pile up! montinho (fazer montinho)

Explanation:
é apenas uma sugestão baseada no tradicional jogo de baralho, "Rouba Montinho". Como também se trata de cartas...
Poderia ser ainda "Monta Montinho", seria mais infantil e divertido.
"Vamos brincar de Monta Montinho"?
Bem, só uma sugestão. Grande abraço e bom trabalho.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Oi Walkiria, estava realmente tentando pensar em algo como o "Rouba Monte" eu adorava jogar com meu irmão gêmeo - hehe Gostei de todas até o momento, vou esperar mais um pouco para decidir...Mas Monta Montinho é legal! Tks ;-)
