4.0 out of 5 stars No age limits!
This book contains timeless board games and activities that suit any age range. Although the text is geared toward children, many of the games can be enjoyed by both children and their parents. Some of the games include Chinese Checkers, Checkers, Tangrams, and other timeless favorites that have no specific age range to them at all. When I bought this book there was...

3.0 out of 5 stars Old fashioned games. Cardboard presentation ok.
No surprise , as expected this is a book not an electronic game. In 2011 this may please more to old timers of 50 like me than to younger children of the Harry Potter generation. BUT even so I did not find the item special nor luxurious enough to keep it in my game collection. I gave it for X-mas to my 10 y.o. brilliant nephew and did not hear from him if he liked it or...

4.0 out of 5 stars No age limits!, July 2, 2000
This review is from: The Amazing Game Board Book (Hardcover)
This book contains timeless board games and activities that suit any age range. Although the text is geared toward children, many of the games can be enjoyed by both children and their parents. Some of the games include Chinese Checkers, Checkers, Tangrams, and other timeless favorites that have no specific age range to them at all. When I bought this book there was a sticker on the cover that said "Ages 6 to 99" and I certainly think that is true. Any kid or teen will appreciate and enjoy this book on the road or just at home. The price is spectacular concidering all that is inside: you get EVERYTHING you need to play the games, nothing is left out. And best of all, everything is magnetic or sticks into the game board, so there is no chance of the car coming to a halt and all the playing pieces flying all over. I would reccomend this book for everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, June 12, 2001
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Amazing Game Board Book (Hardcover)
An excellent book! You could say that this book has no age limits, with the dry-erase drawing boards that are fit for any age, whether you are 1 year old or 100. I was surprised at the great quality of this book, and most things are magnetic, such as the tangrams and Checkers pieces. There are clear instructions on how to play the games in the book, sometimes with neat variations. With this book, you can save a lot of money buying this book than buying all the games this book provides seprately. Very much an excellent buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Game Board Book, November 8, 2001
By 
This review is from: The Amazing Game Board Book (Hardcover)
I originally purchased this book (...), I bought 4 of them. I plan on buying many more. This book is a must if you have children! We plan many long car rides and this book helps keep the kids entertained and quiet. The book itself is quite impressive with many games and puzzles all self contained within the book which is also well constructed for wear and tear. I now give them as birthday presents and I have had so many calls from mothers thanking me and asking me where to find them. This book is a must if you do a lot of traveling!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing-Amazing Game Board Book!, July 9, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Amazing Game Board Book (Hardcover)
This book truly is an Amazing game board book! With its magnetic pieces, dry-erase color boards, foam-board chinese checkers (and much much more, of course!), this book truly has it all! The Amazing Game Board Book also has many different variation for almost all the games it has, with clear and consise instructions.

I bought this book for my friend who had to go on a long airplane trip from Califorina to Taiwan. It certainly was Amazingly Entertaining!

An Excellent (Amazing) buy for any age! So if you're bored, stick this book in your shopping cart and start ordering.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, January 7, 2008
This review is from: The Amazing Game Board Book (Hardcover)
My son is 5 and a bit young to do all the games himself but he loves the ones he can do on his own and the ones we all do together. I think by the time he is 6, he will get more out of it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Level, April 13, 2000
This review is from: The Amazing Game Board Book (Hardcover)
I believe you be misleading purchasers on the age levelappropriateness of this book/game. It is not for baby-preschool, butrather K-1st and 2nd grade. Even with the new standards the comprehension of the games are beyond the baby-preschool level unless they are gifted.

Thank you.
