 As the name implies.. Fun Thinking for young kids! Nov 24, 2009
By Asmii Mom
We had and continue to have a very different experience than the previous reviewer in that our son was not quite 3 years when he began playing and enjoying the first Fun Thinkers book. He's now 5 and still loves the mental challenges in concepts such as opposites, patterns, ordering process steps, and many other areas that help develop logic and reasoning as well as language awareness skills. For us, it's been a fun thing for him to do at the kitchen table while we're making dinner.

 Not for the young learner Mar 02, 2009
By V. Balmer
"SLP and mom to child with autism"
I purchased this item thinking it would be a good learning activity that would benefit my kindergardener. It does interest a visual learner because it uses color coded number tiles and pictures, plus it doesn't require the ability to write. However, it was very confusing overall. The numbered tiles have to be matched to the corresponding answer on the opposite side of the page, which can become confusing if the answer is a number (example, if problem #1 is to find the missing number between 4 and 6, then on the opposite side of the page, you put the #1 tile on the answer 5.) Now that my son is 8, he is interested and able to complete all of the activities in the book (which is supposed to be for children 4-6 years old.) In addition, we had to purchase an additional tile set because once a tile is missing, you can no longer complete the activity. Another aspect of the activity is the self checking that can be done using the color pattern created once the child has completed the task. Unfortunately if your child is easily discouraged or hates to be wrong, this can be a deterrent to his trying to complete the tasks independently. If I had the opportunity to do it over again, I wouldn't.
Teacher recommended Jan 30, 2010
By M. Fonvergne
As a first grade teacher, I can tell you that my students absolutely love this game over anything else I have. There are so many activities that everyone can find something. The problem is, I have two of the books and only one set of tiles. I'm looking to purchase the third book and 2 more sets of tiles. I use it for my at risk students but everyone wants their turn. I like the fact that more than one student can use it at a time. They take turns matching an answer to each "question" and can't wait to check how they did. (Just close the tile frame, flip it over, and match the color pattern to the key.) It is very easy for the students to use.
