Customer Reviews

Great for road trips
My son loved the Q&A format of these cards and we exchanged "high fives" every time he got a "genius point." The cards include a good mix of super easy questions to more challenging ones--all targeted for a specific age level. It would be a stretch to call this game "educational" but the back and forth interaction between quizzer and quizzee provides great family fun. This works very well as a game to pass time in the car or on the airplane.

We have been using Brain Quest cards since the 2 to 3 year old pack. They provide a great way to introduce information to your child such as the difference between urban and suburban. They are portable so you can bring them along with you and use them to pass the time. I find that they give us a chance for one on one that is education and at times very funny.

Educational AND soooo much fun
We take the questions everywhere we go. This is the first thing my then 2 year old took off the shelf in the morning and she went to sleep with them at night. I found my first set of question cards at a yeard sale and then ordered more online. Not only are the questions fun it's also a great way to keep your toddler occupied on a trip. She is now 3 1/2 and we are still not bored with the cards.
