Client Critiques


My son (6 years old) loves this game. It is the one particular that he asks to play most generally. We read the book by L. Keller 1st (though it is not a requirement to play the game). If you do read the book nevertheless, it explains why all of the states are scrambled and why they have to be sent household. The game requires that you can read. You need to have to be in a position to read the name of the state, the state's capital and it really is nickname. Throughout the course of the name you will will need to find, for example, any state in your existing pile, which has a capital which has 3 or significantly more syllables. The player who can locate the state in his/her pile that match the specified criteria initial, can send the state house. The player with the most states sent property at the end of the game wins!

I initially bought this game for my classroom, but I brought it property this summer to play with my kids. I play this game all the time with my 7 year old. It is entertaining for each adults and kids (who can read). My son also has learned the states, an added bonus!
