A very pleased father of a 1st graderDec 02, 2009
Last year, our daughter's very good Kindergarten teacher showed us the list of 100 "Dolch and Fry" words that she was helping our daughter learn. So I asked for a copy and Googled them.
I found this game in that search, and I am very glad I ordered it. It is a basic board game. Roll the dice, move the piece. The twist is, you get a second roll if you can read a word card. (And of course my daughter reads mine too.) Excellent design. Compelling for the child. The word cards alone make it worth the price. Printed on waxy cardboard. Color-coded by level. My daughter likes to use them as flash cards. Very good practice.
She now easily reads 86 of those 100 words. (And we use the game to help her with the ones she is still learning.)
I give this game five stars, and invite comments if anyone can recommend similar games that will be as helpful for future learning challenges.
Great Word Game for all ages!Nov 22, 2009
This is a fun game that my 6 year old, and 3 year old both enjoy equally. I can even join in by adding Trivial Pursuit cards for my turn! It is designed so that even if you do not read the card correctly you still can move spaces on the board. The difficulty levels on the cards match the site words/letters that our children are learning in preschool and 1st grade. I encourage anyone who has children in the learning to read years to purchase this game!
