We started my son with Brain Quest series before he was in Kindergarten. He's now 6 & he still loves them! I find them to be: on-target for age/school; EASILY carried for use on vacation or anywhere there is a wait (like grocery store or restaurants); AND there are more than one in the pack -- I keep one in his room & one in the car. I find that there's enough easy ones to keep him going AND enough harder ones to challenge, but not frustrate him. Fun illustrations, too.

Brain Quest products are wonderful learning tools for children. I own 7 different Brain Quest products and will continue to buy more. Brain Quest Math approaches math problems in a fun and accessible way. Kids love these - parents too! In general, I have found that the ages/grades listed on these products is too high. For example, if the package says it is for a 6 year old, it is probably more appropriate for a 5 year old. This Brain Quest Math is listed for Grade 1 children but it is best for a Kindergarten child - just something to keep in mind when choosing one of these products.

My 6 year old and I have so much fun with these brain quest cards! They are so portable! We do them when we are waiting in car pool in the morning - waiting in a dr. office - really anywhere there is waiting :) or you can think of it this way - anywhere they are pulling out their DSI's - we have a rule of no "gaming" during the school week - so when I need them to do something else- here is that something else - there is also general knowledge cards - and reading - we do them all - and it is fun fun fun - makes them see the instant gratification in getting something right - not too hard either - but not so easy that its boring - a great product all around!!

I really like the variety and types of math questions in these cards. They allow me to incorporate math and story problems at a young age.

My son is 5 years old. He loves these Brain Quest products. He thinks we're playing a game and he really gets into it.
