Great for the College Classroom, Too!I use this game in my Public Speaking course (Freshman-level Speech) for college students. We play the game 2 different ways:1) Active Listening/Effective Communication: There are about 5-6 students in a group. I have the picture cards. One student from each group will come view the card for 10 seconds and then return to the group to describe how to build the structure in the picture. They have to employ memory skills and effective communication skills during this process. They have to remember the shapes, colors, and patterns on each block and how they were positioned in the picture, and THEN they have to communicate all of that info back to the group. And when they are actively competing against other teams, it's even more challenging, but it gets them up and moving and working in teams, which is my goal. (15-30 mins)2) Team-Building/Small Group Communication: Again, there are about 5-6 students in a group (I would prefer 4 or less, but I only have 2 sets of these blocks). They determine their own roles in the group and what each member will do. Some choose to observe, some prefer to build, and some prefer to interpret the cards and direct the building of the structure. The cards include a picture and a challenge statement at the bottom, so after they build the structure, they must then rebuild the structure according to the challenge statement. Only a few of the challenges have only ONE answer, so they inadvertently discuss all possible solutions. I generally don't interact with the groups when they are playing this game; I prefer to monitor if and how well their teams are working together and occasionally offer remind them who is hands-on, who is good at interpreting data, and who is a good evaluator or helper. (15-30 mins)Durability: pretty good1) The cards are printed on slick paper and are fairly durable.2) The blocks are plastic and get knocked over often. We have linoleum floors in our classrooms so they have endured some abuse. Only one block has broken so far - the sphere - and we just taped it back together and it's still going strong.What you get:1) The cards are double-sided and include 40 puzzles total. They range from easy to difficult.2) There are 2 sets of blocks included, which allows (for me) only 2 teams to be working from the same set of cards.For $18, I have gotten a LOT of use out of this critical-thinking game. I will most likely add 2 more sets to my collection, to facilitate more group activities in the classroom. The only downside is I have only been able to incorporate the game once per semester, but that could just be a lack of creativity on my part. 5My 3 and 4 year old kids love this game and it is something they can lay ...My 3 and 4 year old kids love this game and it is something they can lay "together" yet at different levels. We have taken it to brunch with us, and it kept them both occupied for the entire meal. Great gradual difficulty progression with the numbered cards, although my 4 year old started with the last card and had no problem completing it. It will probably have a longer useful period with our 3 year old. 5Great for math time in my class..I bought this for my kindergarten class because I thought that it was the perfect thing for them to do during math time. They love building stuff even when not following the cards that were included in the set. It is a fun game but it is frustrating when the pieces topple over and fall down but I guess that is a good thing because it just encourages you to keep on trying to get it right. I love how it has 3 different languages on the cards because it makes it easier for people who don't speak English. Love this product a lot. :) 5My kids beg to play this game! Educational.I first heard about this game from a great review by a fellow homeschooling mom. I am so glad we decided to get it. We use this as just same basic logic/critical thinking activities during our school day. My 5 and 3 year old use this and love it. It says that it is for ages 5 and up, but with a little encouragement, my 3 year old can participate. The blocks are made of sturdy colorful plastic. The cards give them lots of different puzzles to make, change and figure out and the game itself comes with 2 different ways to play. I like that there are 2 sets of identical blocks, it makes it easy to play with 2 kids ( or 2 teams even). We haven't gotten to the harder levels yet, but so far this game has been great. I like that it makes learning and thinking so much fun. 5Perfect Game for Younger Kids TooI purchased this for my 3 year old and he loves it! I know it says for 5 yr old+ but he loves shapes and building blocks and he is able to grow with this because it starts with very basic shape building to more complex project cards. For a boy who is obsessed with cars and trucks, this was a perfect game that holds his interest. 5WE LOVE IT!This is amazing! My 2 year old grandson is obsessed with shapes and stacking. He does the beautifully and is so proud of himself. I'm a teacher, I highly recommend this product. 5wonderful game you can grow intoI bought this game for my 3, and 4 year old children. I wanted something that would be a bit educational but still lots of fun. All my children love to build and play with blocks so I thought it would be a hit. Right now the kids just like to look at the pictures and build the structure shown. Basically there are 2 ways to play.1. you get to look at the card for 10 sec and try to build the structure based off of what you remember. The first team/child to build the structure correctly wins the round.2. The second way to play is you build the structure then try to follow the clues on the card to alter the structure to solve the clue.As others have said the clues have some pretty intense vocabulary such as "attributes" that seem a bit advanced for the kids but I work on trying to modify the verbage so that my kiddos can still play along. They still have a hard time with this aspect of the game but I like that they can grow with the game. The blocks are colorful and a nice size. My only complaint is the plastic they are made of makes them loud if the kids like to knock down the towers at the end of the game.If I could give this a 4 1/2 I would the only challenge is the vocabulary.This game is a hit in our house.I would recommend this game to any family, and will keep it in mind for when I have to buy toys or games for other children. 4Great visual perceptual toyThese are so colorful and well made. My students in OT love these. I start them out by having them reproduce the design on the card. This is challenging enough for many of them. If this is too easy, then I have them look at the card and reproduce from memory...much more challenging. 5Great game for a kid with autism too!I bought this set when my son was 4. At beginning, he had lots of non compliance and only after 2-3 months, he started to love it! He is patient and calmed while playing the blocks. What is more amazing is that he becomes more and more confident thru the game. He gets better playing all other name brands logic games! I m so glad with the purchase! Highly recommended! 5Multipurpose and age level setWe love These blocks...as per other reviews we found several ways to use them. 5 yr old looks at card and makes picture,7 yr and 9 yr build of my describing the picture, and some times we test our memory by looking at picture for a few minutes, then building from memory.. the plastic pieces are nice colors, without sharp edges. The box that stores them has cardboard dividers for each individual piece. Love this set! 5
