fsumarc79Yes A card game of smaller/larger. This game generates lots of fun bickering and funny discussions and creativity about what is bigger/smaller. Pretty easy to teach though some folks do seem to have a bit of difficulty wrapping their heads around the concepts. My 7yo had a bit of difficulty with this but the 9yo had no problems. Some reading skill required.
Norwood78Some Great game that gets kids to think about comparative size. It also encourages creative outside the box thinking when you allow the more figurative interpretation of what can be in something else ( for example, the universe could be inside a book). In adults, this can lead to some heated arguments about these relationships, but with kids they just don't get that serious about it.
tiggle78Some My 8-yr-old daughter likes this game a lot and so does my husband. I'd usually rather play something else, but often have more fun playing this than I think I will.
The Unbeliever510Some Rules are a little too open ended, so it can be frustrating for kids. Kids need a decent vocabulary.
