Best game ever - Reviewed on 2008-10-24

This game has been an absolute favorite for a long time. My 3 year old now knows his states and capitols. The kids love it better than candyland and the typical games, and I love that they are learning while playing.

I bought this for my 3 year old and she likes it. It's simple and introduces basic awareness of states, what they are known for, where they are. Also practices shape,color, letter recognition.

This was a Christmas gift and my 4.5 year old daughter loves it! Helps a lot with reading and geography (obviously). Also great for talking about places we have been and places where family lives. I would highly recommend it - she asks to play it almost every day since Christmas. Her big cousins loved playing it with her too.

This game is a nice alternative to the usual Candyland type games. My daughter, who is 5, has learned a lot of the state names from this game. Children do not have to be able to read to play, which is good for younger children.

This is a great board game. It teaches the states' names, shapes and a fun fact about each state. The players, depending on what card they pick, have to find a state that starts with a certain letter, find the state that matches the shape, or find a picture of something on a state. My 5 and 3 year old girls love it. They ask to play it all the time. The only negative thing is that since they cannot read well yet, I have to be present while they play. I guess that is not totally a bad thing since I probably need a geography lesson myself!! This is very educational and will definitely help my kids get a head start in geography. (Also, the state capitals are written on each state.)
