Learning Resources Mental Blox On The Go, Road Trip Games, Ages 5+

I received this product as part of an incentivized review program. This has been one of my favorite LR products so far. We took this game on the train when we took a trip into the city. The box/case for the game is really well made. The board of the game snaps into the bottom of the case, so it doesn't shake around. I think this really helps since the game is meant to be "on the go." After the kids were done playing, the whole case snapped into place with the pieces in each slot, so that the game didn't move around in my bag. I really love the ability for the game to be played on your own and with other people. They each took turns playing the different games. The instruction booklet made it easy for both of my kids to play on their own. I just had to show them what the object of the game was and they were able to set it up and play on their own. One of their favorite games was the memory game and the simple chess game. Both of the kids found it interactive and entertaining. As a parent, I loved watching them play multiple games on their own during our train ride. They were so into the game, that we didn't even realize that we had arrived at our station. One of the worries I had was that when they played all of the games once they wouldn't want to play again, but they have continued to take out the game and play it again and again. We talk about beating your old record if it is playing on their own or continuing to set up different memory games together. I would definitely recommend this game to other families with kids around the ages of 5-8. Both of my kids enjoyed playing the game and they really like it that they can take it wherever they go. I will definitely be taking it to our next restaurant outing so we don't need to take my electronic devices.
