Kids Trivia Plus

We discovered this trivia game in a cupboard in a cottage in Wales. It was fun for mum, dad, friends and my 7yr old boys, with the added bonus of being educational! My children do enjoy it more when the adults are reading the cards as well. The endless volume of cards makes it more interesting. It is one gift I will be giving other kids for their birthdays this year. I think once your child can read and enjoy playing games with other children, it is more enjoyable. It is not something you purchase to just read through. LOVE IT!

This is a nicely-designed tin containing 300 11x8cm cards, each of which has a picture on one side, representing the subject and three questions on the other. Picking one at random:--------------------------------------------------------------------------African Wildlife card no.147Q1. Do zebras have black stripes on a white skin or white stripes on a black skin?Q2. True or false: An adult hippopotamus can run faster than an adult human being.Q3. How many horns does a rhinoceros have?A1. Black stripes on a white skinA2. TrueA3. TwoFACT: There are two types of rhinoceros, the white and the black; the white rhino isn't actually white - the name is a corruption of the Afrikaans word meaning "wide" because it has a wide lip.ACTION: Make a word-search puzzle with as many African animals as you can think of.See also: 144, 145, 148, 150--------------------------------------------------------------------------The numbers at the bottom refer you to other cards with a similar subject. In this case 144 - Elephants, 145 - Giraffes, 148 - Big Cats and 150 - Gorillas.I think all the cards have a fact, but not all have an action. The first 60 cards all have flags as the picture and each have that particular country as their subject.Also included are a set of rules, a die numbered 1, 2, & 3, a small pencil and some score cards. You can play a game and pick the questions at random by rolling the die.My boys (9 & 7) prefer just to pick a card and ask the questions. It's fun, they learn some facts and it helps them with their reading too.It's a really nice little game which can last for as long or as a little time as you want, without any board to set up, pieces to knock over or complicated rules. It's compact, you could take it to play in the car. The tin is approx. 14 x 10.5 x 9.5 cm.We got this last Christmas and the children still ask to play it a year later. Overall good value for money.

This game was bought for my 6 year old daughter and she absolutely loves it, so much so that bed time stories are a thing of the past and instead she would rather me read her these cards. Some of the cards are tricky for her but this is a real plus point and she is learning so much. Would highly recommend

Good game for kids but some of the questions are hard for approx ten year age group. Good if played in teams with adults to help! Overall quite good fun

Questions are very hard for kids, huge disappointment as we were looking forward to playing it with my daughter

Got this for my niece on her birthday and it has gone down a storm. Regularly engage in this quiz which is so much fun almost every weekend at my mums when all the grand kids get together. Very educational but so much fun, especially when done in teams. Great for adults too.

We don't actually play the game included in the box, I just ask the kids random questions, taking turns and they are 9 & 12. There are many categories in the box and it is very educational and the kids knew some answers but learned a lot from the ones they didn't know. Very good for this age bracket.

Most of the questions do not have answers as they are vague such as ' which person in the room has the biggest foot' or something similar. I was expecting knowledge questions with the answers as per trivia. Rather disappointing game, kids have never really bothered
