Travel Guess Who Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We purchased this for use on our family vacation with our 3 children. They love the full-sized game that we have at home. The travel game is easily small enough to fit in a carry-on bag. It seems sturdy so far, although we have bent a few of the cards. The names on the cards are a bit small, and you have to occasionally look closely at the cards to make out some of the finer details (mustache, eyeglasses, etc.). Overall, a great learning game and perfect for travel. I almost think that this travel version is more sturdy than the original version because the cards don't fall out of the holders as easily as in our full-sized version. We were also able to play this game on a turbulent airplane without anything falling over, spilling on the floor, or getting lost. Highly recommend,especially if your kids like this game.

Hit the Deck Card Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Hit the Deck comes from a great company, Fundex, the authors of classic games such as Phase 10, Rage, and many others. In the spirit of the company's other great games, this one does not disappoint.
Hit the Deck could be seen as a cousin to Uno. The basic rules are very similar: you match cards by number or color. However, Hit the Deck features less numbers than Uno, only going from 1 to 5. What makes up for this lack is the additional cards. Some will cause you to flip both decks. Others will make the next player not only cut the deck, but make them pick up the card they come upon and deprive them of their turn as well. Some will force the next player to "hit the deck" with a card of a certain number or color. Best of all, however, this game contains some real-life action and excitement. "Hit the deck with a hand" cards force every participating player to hit the deck with their hand. The last person loses and is forced to pick up 4 additional cards, so everyone's reflexes are tested to the max. This is perhaps the highlight of the game!

This fast-paced, hand-slappin' card game takes clever strategy, quick reaction and a little bit of luck. If you are the last player to slap the deck when a Hit the Deck card is played, you have to draw more cards. Try to get rid of your cards, and be the player with the fewest points when the game ends. Hit the Deck is a hit with the whole family! Includes 110 cards and instructions.

Sorry Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This game is a variation of Parcheesi. Rather than rolling dice to move around the board, you draw cards with numbers on them. However, some of the cards also have alternate instructions...such as being able to switch places with an opponent, split the count between two pieces, or move backwards to sneak into your home without having to go all the way around the board. Even very young children quickly learn to take full advantage of these options. I especially like this game because it's one of the few young children's games in which an adult can play seriously without "accidentally" making mistakes and STILL be beat by the 5-year-old! Action-wise, it's a little bit slow, but, hey...it sure beats Candyland!CAUTION: This may be the first time your children encounter sabotage as a game strategy, and tempers may flare. One of the most educational aspects of this game is that it gives you plenty of chances to talk about good sportsmanship and not taking a game too seriously. :o)

Winning Moves Uncle Wiggily Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Uncle Wiggily has the same appeal as a Dr. Seuss book. The characters are whimsical, the art appealing, and the rhymes help struggling readers. As a high school English teacher, I sometimes get asked by friends to help their children who are having trouble learning to read. I always bring out my Uncle Wiggily game, which has been in my family for about 30 years. Now I am delighted to be able to buy a copy for a friend's family, whose children always ask to play the game when they come over. Call it nostalgia or call it Peter Pan Syndrome...I still enjoy the game myself!

Connect Four Fun On the Run Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have enjoyed playing Connect Four Fun on the Run, but it's flimsy construction. The collection trays pop off repeatedly. In addition, the columns that store the checkers have lids that snap shut presumably to keep the checkers in place, but they continually pop off as well leaving checkers scattered in the box. The checkers are small, and are easy to lose. Hasbro doesn't offer replacements for the checkers, so you really have to be careful when playing. On the other hand, the price is so reasonable, it's entertaining, and I think instead of buying a duplicate I would buy the travel folio version with zip-up pouch.
Overall, I recommend this toy, but strongly suggest the game be stored in a plastic bag, as it doesn't hold up well to the bumps and bruises of travel with the trays, and lids popping off, and the checkers rolling all over the box.

UNO MOO Preschool Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 3 year old daughter loves to play games, so when we saw this one, it went right on her Christmas list. And for as hard as it was to find this holiday season, I had high expectations. I was disappointed.
Here's my 2 cents:
-It is difficult to randomly pick a character from the barn when you can see what you are picking. We try having everyone close their eyes, but it doesn't really work!
-The haystacks surely won't last long, and if you are playing on the floor, they don't do much good anyways.
-The concept and packaging is great - love the fact that it is small and self contained. The less space it takes up in the closet the better!
The bottom line is that we don't play that this often (and we play a game every night). When it does come out, we usually don't have a successful game. If you are looking for a game that will teach the same rules (color/matching), I would suggest a children's deck of Crazy Eights...we were playing that when she was 2.5 and it was much easier and less frustrating than this game!
If you are looking for other good board games to play for a 3 year old, I would suggest Toy Story Yahtzee Jr, Sequence for Kids, and Zingo. Those are the big hits in our house!

(More customer reviews)If you are looking for a great game for family get togethers, beach parties or just in a playroom, Twister Hoopla will entertain all ages. Five differnt games (see above product description) can be played using this set, and these games would be just as fun for young children as teens or adults.

It's a TWISTER game with a twist! Instead of the game mat, you get 16 colorful rings and five different ways to play! Game 1 challenges you to use your bodies to hold the rings in place and the last team standing wins. Game 2 is a ring toss with your hands and feet to catch! Game 3 is a race to make it to the finish line with colored rings in hand. Game 4 is a fun version of the traditional TWISTER game: scatter the rings and then call out the moves; but don't fall or you're out! Game 5 gets you all tangled up with other players as you reach for rings, hang on to your TWISTER T and try to stay on your feet. Inside or out, this game makes sure you're ready to throw a TWISTER party just about anywhere!For 2 - 4 players, ages 6 and up.Contents Include:2 spinners, 16 TWISTER HOOPLA rings, 4 TWISTER Ts and the official TWISTER HOOPLA game guide.Adult assembly required.
