5 out of 5 stars Great Intergenerational Bingo Game!!   November 19, 2008
Learning All The Time (USA)
My kids loved this bingo game, particularly my younger son. It is mostly a game of luck, but also reflexes, because the first person to call out that they have the picture on the chip on their card, gets to keep the chip.

We used to take this to a nursing home to play with the seniors. It is perfect for that situation (a 4 year old and a couple of seniors), because it is a simple, familiar game, and the graphics are simple and easy for everyone to identify.

And, for my son, half the fun of this game was setting it up (stacking the chips in the dispenser) and sliding the dispenser forward and back to reveal the chips.

Highly recommended for the preschool/early elementary set. My son is 6 now, and he still pulls this out sometimes, but he has a hard time convincing his 11 and 9 year old siblings to play.

An option for older children, which has the same type of dispenser (and the dispenser is what makes this game) is "Smart Mouth", which dispenses two letters and players have to shout out a word that begins with the first letter and ends with the second.

When I called my sister to see how her son (5 years old) liked this gift, she laughed. Apparently he burst into tears upon first seeing it because it wasn't another super hero action figure. She sat down with him and his older brother (6 years old) and they played a round and they've been playing it daily ever since. She also mentioned that her 5-year-old tends to be a bit of a sore loser and this game has helped her to help him overcome that tendency.


5 out of 5 stars Great for all ages   October 29, 2008

WOW! We love this game. I have been in desperatly searching games for my 5 and 8 year old could play together. You know, so the 8 year old does not always have the "upper hand"...and this is it. The game comes with several different ways of playing. We started with the first- the simpleist, and moved on to the harder options. Dad and I have even joined in the fun. We love this. They learn taking turns, small moter skills, planning, coordination...and many others. ENJOY! We do!


4 out of 5 stars I enjoy it!   October 17, 2008

I'm 38 and have a 4 year old daughter. She constantly wants me to play with her and sometimes I dread playing because the games for her age group are so dang boring. This is one game I actually enjoy playing and although it's a game of chance (more then skill) she almost always wins, which makes it one of her favorites too. It takes up little space on the shelf and the game (and the box) is very sturdy. This is the type of game you can give away or sell when your kid outgrows it because it won't show wear.

My son loves this game! We got it when he was 3 after playing at a friends house. He is for now and still loves it. We plan to purchase the one with super heroes for Christmas.
