Editorial Review

Brain Quest Kindergarten
- Book Review, by Chris Welles Feder

Amazon.com
If only all children had someone as friendly and daring as red-haired Ryan the Lion to guide them through all the new learning necessary for successful kindergarten days in the classroom. Cheerful, slightly daffy Ryan can be found on nearly every question card in these two Brain Quest decks--whether he's eyeing some delicious red licorice as he demonstrates numerical concepts ("Which will buy more candy: the penny or the nickel?") or cautiously approaching a bird's nest as he skydives into treetops (in a correct-the-narrative-sequence episode).

While kids are bonding with Ryan (and enjoying the cool construction of these slick, bound decks), parents will thrill at the range of fundamental academic skills and common-sense information that their children will pick up from these fun-to-guess cards. It's all here: questions about the alphabet, spelling, vocabulary, counting, spatial concepts, the physical sciences, as well as demonstrations of right from left, safety rules, and names of computer equipment. There also seems to be the perfect balance of "easy" and "hard" questions in this huge sampling. Kids feel both capable and challenged with Brain Quest, and thus stay with these decks for a long time. (Ages 5 to 6) --Jean Lenihan

FROM THE CRITICS

Money

Amazing...This quiz game is not only lots of fun, but educational besides.

Chicago Tribune

There's a game out there that doesn't need batteries-in fact, it runs on brainpower. It's called Brain Quest, and it proves that being smart can also be fun.

Child

Surf, sun, school...yikes! If you're looking to clear the summer cobwebs from your child's head, check out Brain Quest.

Family Life

...Brain Quest is not only educational, it's also fun.

Children's Literature - Barbara Youngblood

A special treat for five and six years olds and their busy parents. Three hundred questions and answers in a format that the younger set can understand and enjoy. Shapes, colors, counting, and many other learning skills are challenged. What a great set to keep in the glove compartment or handbag for those times while you're stuck in traffic or waiting for the older kids to finish their piano lesson or kick boxing session.
