The decks also include fun games for two or more kids to play, such as Destination, a traveling game in which kids get from a starting point to a destination by answering questions about each state in between.

A full-featured box of intelligent fun, BRAIN QUEST EXTRA FOR THE CAR will keep kids entertained-for trips of one hour or ten. Selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club, Scholastic Book Clubs, and Newbridge Book Club. Suitable for ages 7-12. 790,000 copies in print.

Smarter. Fresher. Better.

For kids, it’s fun unplugged. For parents, it’s the easiest, most trusted way to know if their children are keeping pace. Assisting in the relaunch is an advisory panel of ten of America’s top educators, each of them winners of Teacher of the Year or Milken National Educator Awards. The result: completely revised questions and answers, with up to 20%new material, to bring each deck up to the standards of today’s curricula. The content is the same that kids will find on standardized tests, handled in such a way that it promotes mental flexibility.

Another purchase for my granddaughters. They love to use their brain quest cards especially when traveling in the car. It is great what they learn from these cards. A must for travel or just to learn!

I think I have these for every grade level also. My girls love them. They like to test each other and us also. Are very educational and refresh us parents minds also! These are great to keep in the car or take on Motor Home trips. Small and compact, we love them.

My daughter loves to read these questions all the time. I bought it for our long road trip to Disney World, but it looks like I am going to have to buy different ones as she can't put this one down already.
