I bought these for our oldest son who was starting 4th grade. He can't get enough of them. The cards are also great for the car. We recently took a 4 hr. trip and the kids loved being quizzed. My husband and I also participate, because there are a few things you forget over the years! They really are a wonderful way for kids to learn in a fun way. I previously bought the 2nd grade ones and now also bought the kindergarten cards for our 2nd son. I will definately be buying each set through the years!

I have never heard of Brain Quest, but decided to buy as stocking stuffers, thanks to Amazon's suggestion and other user reviews. They are a real hit with the kids, who have a blast asking each other knowledge questions to test their skills!

We have been buying the BrainQuest cards for about 5 years now, since my oldest daughter was a toddler. Both of my children really enjoy trying to answer the questions for their age ranges. I have to say that this Grade 4 had quite a few questions that were harder than I expected. Also, there were quite a few questions per card, more than the cards for the younger grades that we already have. Also, BrainQuest is great for my daughter because we try and emphasize that "its cool to be smart", which is a message that unfortunately is not really emphasized to young girls.
