fsumarc86Yes Teaches focus and pattern/color/symbol recognition plus some very basic US geography. Some reading skills (minimal) would help. My kids enjoy this one and have requested it a few times. Very easy to find currently at most major super stores.
csjoholm7  The kids need to be readers to play this. My older son loves geography and is very quick when he wants to be.
corross46No Ugh. This is not a fun game. My children and I are *huge* fans of the Scrambled States of America book, but the game is just, well, ugh. It doesn't play well with people of mixed ages (because older ones will stomp younger ones). It doesn't play well with people of different levels of state-related knowledge (again, the stomping thing). Buy the book -- heck, buy everything Laurie Keller has ever written -- but skip the game.
