Horizontal carousel for non-dynamic container widgets in flutter

Question

I'm trying to build a horizontal carousel of container widgets - i.e. the user simply scrolls horizontally to view the 6 container widgets I have.

How can I implement this?

I have tried using SingleChildScrollView() - and placed in there a Row() widget, but that didn't do anything.. nothing scrolled.

Row(children: [
Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 1'))),
Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 2'))),
Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 3'))),
Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 4'))),
Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 5'))),
Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 6'))),

]),

I'd like each container to be on the same row, and the end user able to scroll horizontally to view each item,

How would you implement this?

You can copy paste run full code below
You can use package https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_mobile_carousel
You can use rowCount to define how many items need to show at the same time

code snippet

 Carousel(rowCount: 4, children: [
              Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 1'))),
              Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 2'))),
              Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 3'))),
              Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 4'))),
              Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 5'))),
              Container(child: Card(child: Text('Unit 6'))),
            ]),

import 'package:flutter_mobile_carousel/carousel.dart';
import 'package:flutter_mobile_carousel/carousel_arrow.dart';
import 'package:flutter_mobile_carousel/default_carousel_item.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(

class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  MyHomePage({Key key, this.title}) : super(key: key);

  final String title;

  @override
  _MyHomePageState createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}

class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
  int _counter = 0;

  void _incrementCounter() {
    setState(() {
      _counter++;
    });
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(

            Text(
              '$_counter',
              style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline4,
            ),
          ],
