Amazon.com Review
When the Brain Quest series moves from preschool age to the first-grade set, it transforms from a playful question game into a sort of elementary school version of Trivial Pursuit. (In the spirit of this new grown-up air, there is no longer a cheerful animal guide appearing throughout the decks.) Now, each card features one question from each of five category sections: Reading, Math, Vocabulary, Social Studies & Science, and Grab Bag. The rules are gentle: Playing in teams, with partners, or solo, you can stick to your favorite subject category or play the whole card. Keeping score (they offer three different versions) is optional. Though the framework of the game feels very grown-up, the questions are not out of a first grader's league. A math question asks, "What coin is the same as 25 cents?" A sample science question reads, "Name the force that keeps you from floating in the air." There is much good humor in these questions, and the name references are nicely up to date, though not completely contemporary (Beanie Baby references can be found here, but Pokémon's not mentioned). (Ages 6 to 7). --Jean Lenihan

 My 1st grader loves it! March 4, 2010
Wii Mom (Pasadena, CA)

I hesitated to get this after reading some of the reviews, but my son loves it. The lack of pictures does not bother us. I've been reading the questions to him and he answers. After we go through it all, I will encourage him to read through it himself since the questions will be more familiar to him. He is so excited when he gets a "genius point"!
Helps Beat Boredom on long car trips January 20, 2010
Dini Booty (California)
This was our first time trying Brain Quest and we love it! Our son loves that he can answer the questions right most of the time. It is so much better than just mindlessly watching cartoons while riding in the car for long distances. It also involves the whole family to play. There are so many questions in the package, we still have not made it through all of them. There is also a good variety of different types of questions. I was surprised when my son correctly answered questions I had no idea he would know! The Brain Quest people have obviously done their homework in developing this product, and I plan on buying more for gifts!

Great for Kids!!! March 23, 2009
C. Guzzardi (Bayside, New York)
These products are great! My daughter is in kindergarten and I got her the first grade, the kindergarten was to easy for her. All of my friend's kids just wanted to answer the questions. Keeps them entertained!
Great learning tool for kids January 7, 2009
A. Williams (Salem, Oregon)
The BrainQuest series is great. A friend gave us the first in the series when my daughter was born and she started working with it when she was 2. Now she's almost four and has gone through that one plus "for threes" and "preschool" and is now working on "Kindergarten". A few of the cards' questions aren't as clear as they could be but overall they've been a great learning tool and she really enjoys them.
