Toys and Games Reviews of Scrambled States
Customer Review: AMAZING GAME!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow...my kids LOVE this game!! They started playing it when they were 2 and 4 years old. They are now 4 and 6 and have the entire map of the U.S. memorized and with no effort, just FUN! Of all the games in our home (and there are a lot) this is the game most played. At 2 1/2 years old my son could point to any U.S. map and tell you the state and it's capital because of this game. That is AMAZING! Over time, we have made up a few of our own little rules to make it more fun and crazy, but it is great and now I am buying it for all my nephews and neice because they have played it and want it too. Highly recommend!Customer Review: Best Tool for Learning States and Capitals
Summary: 5 Stars
I tried a bunch of different ways to teach states and capitals (especially as the educational system deems this most important) and no method is as painless and fun as this game is. In fact this game actually teaches kids better than memorization does (gee I wonder why!). No get me wrong, geography is very important but sometimes I wonder if we don't overemphasize memorization over actual learning and understanding. This game is the way to go in teaching states and capitals and they will retain the information for a much longer period of time. Lots of fun!Customer Review: Fun for kids and adults alike!
Summary: 5 Stars
The adults started playing this on Christmas Day without the 8 year old it was purchased for. We had so much fun, the 5 year old told us to quiet down and the 8 year old joined in. You learn state names, capitols, and state nicknames, plus state shapes and where the states are in relation to each other. There are a few "just for fun" type question that keep it lively (which state is wearing something in their picture), but plenty more that make you think (which capitol has a boy's name hidden in it - Frankfort, Richmond, or Austin are some options).Customer Review: Overall fun game for the whole family
Summary: 4 Stars
We purchased this on sale at Borders and have been having alot of fun with it. My 6 year old likes to read the cards while my daughter and I compete against each other. The only drawback in my opinion is the cards that ask non-state related questions, such as "what state is wearing something" or "what state is showing teeth". I guess that is to break things up, but I wish they had cards that asked a geography question instead. Overall, it is a fun and fairly quick game to play.Customer Review: A must have!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this game for my daughter three years ago when she was in first grade. This is the BEST game for learning where all the states are and also for memorizing capitals. Now in fourth grade there are map tests and she zips right through them. The game is also fun and it is one of my favorites to play with her.
The Scrambled States book is also a must have. The little side comments are the funniest things you will read in any kid's book.
