What color you going to have, Daddy?
This card game is my 4.5 year old daughter's current favorite game and has been for a couple of weeks now. She could play this many, many times a day. We'll never know how many unless she takes it upon herself to play a 1-player version -- my wife and I take turns playing with her. This game does not focus on the characters in the Dora universe; rather, you need to find objects that might appear in Dora stories (star, book, boat, flute, binoculars, maracas, etc.). Each player has their own backpack card which shows which other cards you will need to get; each different colored backpack requires a different set of items to be found. A good thing about this game is that a "hand" goes by pretty quickly, so you can play for only a short time and then your child may agree to stop. Also, it is obviously quite portable. Dora fans may be disappointed that there's no Boots, Swiper, et. al. On the other hand, your child need not be "into" Dora to appreciate the anticipation of drawing a desired card. Not highly educational although matching skills get exercised, and my daughter was motivated to learn to pronounce "binoculars" (she used to say "binocky-oars", which is neither here nor there but I could hardly leave it out). You can use a little strategy but it is mostly a game of luck. ... Read more

BEST GAME EVER!!!!
I bought this game for my eight year old cousin, but the entire extended family (three generations) ended up playing it for hours, and I'm going to have to buy one for myself now! Wonderfully creative, everyone has a different technique. It was easy enough for the 8 year old to play, but challenging enough for the rest of us to enjoy. A wonderful way to encourage creative thinking in children and adults and, of course, an immense amount of fun!

Stick with It
This game looks a little intimidating when you first remove it from the box. I recommend playing a practice round first. After a while, players will adjust to the the tiles. The game definitely encourages you to think outside of the box and use your creativity. This game is a "must-have" for doodlers, artists, and crafty people. One friend who got really good insisted that squinting actually helped. The game will have you howling with laughter as you say, "How is THAT supposed to be a giraffe?!?".

a fun game
The game is alot of fun, but don't play it with the timer . The timer doesn't give you enough time to think about which cards to use, and make the shape with. The #1's on the cards are the easiest ones to make. ... Read more

The greatest card game yet!!!
This is the greatest card game yet. In this game, you get to choose to make 1 of 8 different decks!(megaman,wackoman,gutsman,roll,elecman,magicman,numberman,and torchman) this game involves a lot of strategy, like just choosing which navi you want to use. you want to try to make the opponent draw all of the cards out of his/her deck. megaman and torchman are for beginners since they are the theme decks, but are still good. wackoman has an uber-powerfull combo that includes wackoman, maddy, discord, and heartburn (a lot of each of those cards). there are battle chip cards (cannon, mini bommer, etc.), net navi cards (wackoman, megaman, etc.), net-op cards(maddy, lan, dex, maylu, count zap, higsby, mr. match, etc.), red, blue, yellow, and green resource cards. every different color resource (red, blue, yellow, green) are better in different situations. red is for pure, knock-down, power (perfect for torchman). green is for manipulation and for making your opponent draw more cards (perfect cards for wackoman). blue is for you to draw more cards (perfect for megaman). and i really don't know what yellow is for. all in all, this tcg is really worth the money, and really fun. this came out on june 30th, but it doesn't come out to target and toysrus, etc., until august. july 16th is when it comes out online. for more information on this great trading card game (tcg), go to www.megamantcg.com and download the sample deck and rules. it is also very helpful to go to the message boards. i did, and this is how i learned everything. but there is still a lot that i didn't tell you. go to the website to learn it all and see all of the cards on their card lists. see ya! ...

Editorial Review

The winner of an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award, Make ItUp answers those probing questions about how something is made orwhat it's made up of. Each of the 18 sturdy cardboard story cards holdsillustrations of five or more related items, with the center itemlocated on a punch-out oval section. The game can be played alone orwith one or two others, and the goal is to match each oval tile with itsproper story card. For example, the birdhouse is matched with the bird,saw, nails and wood; the painting matches with the paint tubes, brush,palette, and blank canvas, and so on. The game comes with a ParentsGuide of brief narratives for each card, along with rules forcooperative play and for memory/matching play. The game was designed bya practicing child psychotherapist and a child psychiatrist. --AvaNatov ... Read more

Yahtzee Hold 'Em: A Bust!
This game; is a poor attempt to capitalize on both the Hold'Em craze, as well as the Yahtzee franchise.

If someone wants to play poker; they'll use playing cards; not dice.Besides; the original "Yahtzee!" game already rolls for full houses, straights, etc., the game is far from a unique concept.

The only redeeming factor is the parts seemingly will hold up--for the few times you play this game. ... Read more

One of the best toys I've bought;
Hello, everyone! I love Mighty Beanz and you should too. Anyway, down to the review. I own Mighty Beanz, and they are the most durable toy in the world. I trew one on a tile floor,
it did not break. And that tile WAS HARD. I rate this five stars beacause, you can collect them and play over 40 games. Portabile, and quite funny people. You can trade your Beanz if somebody you know has Mighty Beanz. Witch trading is fun. And if you have the whole set, you can think that they are real people. Witch that is fun too. But you can step on them. But that hurts. So keep them in a collector's case. Or somewhere.
But that's a nother story. But all I can say it is a magnificent toy. Why I rated the education 4 stars beacause you make and create your own games. But that's for the kids who like to think. As surcomstansis go, it is wonderful toy. And what is fun is that you are like on a mission to find the rare glow-in-the dark Beanz. Including the Mighty Moose Bean. Oh yeah, series 1 is haunting your packs!!! They are super rare and they could be in your next pack!!! So what are you whaiting for? Start collecting. Well I gotta ride, See ya
(and I do like tracktors! My Dad owns a Takauechi!)

mighty beanz
I really enjoy mighty beanz. These are very durable,fun and a good toys to collect. The series two beanz have 70 cool pictures on them. I have alot of them. In the package,there is also two trading cards. Note: don`t leave in the area dogs, cats or any other animals can get to because they can choke.

A great toy!
This pack of beanz worked very well going downhill. It's fun to play with.

fun
there the greatest toy for all ages. my oldest son that is 15 he plays with them. my husband likes to have contests with the kids to see who can get the to go down the ramp the fastest.they are very educational and durable. whith mighty beans my children come running home to play with them because there so fun.

I think there ok
I think that there is no problem of the beans having breasts. As long as they have a shirt on, I think it's Ok. It's not like there nude or any thing. Women have breasts in real life to! Get over it! ... Read more

family favourite
This is our family favourite game. We all love it - ranging from 7 -40+ yeas old. because of their light weight,we can carry it around to all the trips we have. Rain can no longer ruin my kid's vacation as long as she has this uno with her. The rule of changing hands makes the game more exciting. It also helps my kid learn how to evaluate the game and the more she plays the better she becomes at finding ways to win the game. Highly recommended. Love it.

Trade hands is a new twist
The kids love this and play it over and over! The new cards that have them trade hands is fun. I like the box, it's easy to open and lasrs longer than the traditional box. For girls the Barbi pictures make it fun. ... Read more
