5.0 out of 5 stars apples and oranges
Comparing this game to any other kids game is like comparing apples to oranges. Although my children (ages 6 & 8) enjoy a variety of kids games, this is one of the few that dad and I can play without falling to sleep from boredom! We started with the kids version for them, and they loved it! They loved it so much, that I brought it to work (a middle school), and played...

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for younger than 7
My kids are 5 & 8 and this game was perfect for my 5 year old...way too easy for my 8 year old. I would have rather gotten the Junior version. Because my 5 year old doesn't stay interested in it long enough to want to play, and my 8 year old doesn't want to play it because it is too easy.

Comparing this game to any other kids game is like comparing apples to oranges. Although my children (ages 6 & 8) enjoy a variety of kids games, this is one of the few that dad and I can play without falling to sleep from boredom! We started with the kids version for them, and they loved it! They loved it so much, that I brought it to work (a middle school), and played it with emotionally disturbed and behaviorally disordered pre-teens. THEY loved it! The social worker is working on creating cards that could be used as teaching opportunities for the kids, so we can tie in some of the emotional components. Seriously, LOVE the game, so much we bought the grown up version. I can't wait to crack that one open!!

We just got this game for our almost 6 year old daughter. I've heard about this game for a while and so happy this version came out. I was afraid she was still a bit young but she read the cards and understood the concept without a problem. I had much more fun than I thought!

We also have a four year old. He can't read but he could still judge. My husband held two green cards, had the little guy pick one and had him judge as well.

It was a little hard on our daughter when her card was not judged the winner so make sure your young ones can "take the heat". I think this is the reason why it's for 7+, maturity.

I want to play this game with our friends and their kids at our next get together! I can understand why this was such a huge hit for large parties. This game will be around for years to come. Simple concept, I guess the KISS method works.

This review is from: Apple To Apples Kids 7 Plus - The Game of Crazy Comparisons (Toy)
I bought this game for my 6 1/2 year-old son for Christmas and couldn't be more impressed. This kids version is exactly like the very popular adult version, only with simpler words. The rules are easy to learn and understand, but it will also get your child using his mind and is very educational. My son sometimes needs help reading some of the words, but I like that it challenges him in a fun way. This is a hilarious game to play with a child and you get an idea of how their mind works, which is often very funny. A great family game to play on a cold winter evening or anytime!

This review is from: Apple To Apples Kids 7 Plus - The Game of Crazy Comparisons (Toy)
We have the Apples to Apples, Apples to Apples Jr., but the Apples to Apples 7+ is perfect for my 6 year old.

He saw how much fun the other Apples to Apples games were, but the words were just too difficult for him. The Apples to Apples 7+ is perfect for him. This game helps him build his vocabulary and he loves beating me. (His dad is usually the judge)

We are not board game people, but this is one game that everyone can play. Short and sweet.

Our niece (age 9) visited us for the summer and she wanted to play it 24/7. It was funny!

I ordered a couple of these because this version is hard to find in the stores.

This review is from: Apple To Apples Kids 7 Plus - The Game of Crazy Comparisons (Toy)
I played the adult version at a party and was impressed. I wanted to purchase a version that was better suited for my 6 and 8 year old and this is perfect! My kids love it so much they want to play it again and again. It has encouraged my 6 year old, who is just learning to get her words down, to want to read, something which I have found hard to do. That alone makes this game worth it! I do have to deduct one star because there are a lot fewer cards than in the adult version. I wonder how many times we'll be able to play it before the cards start repeating too often.

This review is from: Apple To Apples Kids 7 Plus - The Game of Crazy Comparisons (Toy)
This game has been well enjoyed by my whole family. The concept is simple enough for young children (7+) to get a handle on it, while still being enjoyable for the parents and grandparents as well. Since the game requires you to read and understand the cards, which sometimes contain words the child is not familiar with there is an element of education, but nicely buried so as to not seem tedious for the kids. The box, tray and cards have stood up to my kids who often are not great about such things and so we as parents appreciate that. I would recommend this game for any family looking for something new to play on family game night, or even something to take on vacation.

This game was a birthday present for my 7 year old grandson-he and his 9 year old brother really enjoy playing this game with his grandma and grandpa. We are certain they are learning word meanings amid their constant laughter and little brother rivalry.

Purchased for my nephew who is learning to read, this game fits the bill. Fun to play with a little educational value as a bonus. Mom and dad liked it, too!

The adults in our family love to play the original Apples to Apples at family gatherings. This version lets the younger family members who are new readers join in on the fun.
