It is the one that he asks to play most often. We read the book by L. Keller first (although it is not a requirement to play the game). If you do read the book however, it explains why all of the states are scrambled and why they have to be sent home. The game requires that you can read. You need to be able to read the name of the state, the state's capital and it's nickname. During the course of the name you will need to locate, for example, any state in your current pile, which has a capital which has 3 or more syllables. The player who can locate the state in his/her pile that match the specified criteria first, can send the state home. The player with the most states sent home at the end of the game wins! 45 of 45 people found the following review helpful: No Experience needed!, By M.Liu "Enlightened Mom" (Taiwan) - See all my reviews = Durability: = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: Scrambled States (Toy) I am a sucker for slipping in education when kids aren't looking! This game gets participants noticing everything from colors, ABC's order, comparisons and contrasts (looking at the states individual details as well as the map as a whole), to measurement skills and to syllables and sneaks in US Geography too! My not yet reading 5 y.o. is able to play his own hand after two weeks of the game in the house!!! (We all help eachother anyway). Absolutely no prior US knowledge needed as all questions are based on the map and cards in the deck. (Even my adult English language learners enjoyed the challenge of practicing the language concepts to "prove" how much language they have mastered---or not!!! :) The fun definately overrides the "drag" of studying geography with this game, but the more facts you learn the better chance you have to WIN, so motivation is high to keep learning!!! Great value for the price, too. 38 of 39 people found the following review helpful: I love this game!, By This review is from: Scrambled States (Toy) I originally bought this game for my classroom, but I brought it home this summer to play with my kids. I play this game all the time with my 7 year old. It is fun for both adults and kids (who can read). My son also has learned the states, an added bonus! |
