"I spy a spider, a baby in blue, memory games are fun to do!" If you and your kids enjoy the I Spy book series, then you'll want to play the I Spy Memory Game! It's like other memory games, except that there are a few twists such as differing backgrounds on matching cards, funny riddles, and fascinating details in the photo cards. The game can be played three different ways. The simplest version is the basic matching of memory card pairs. Kids as young as 4 can play, and no reading is required. Two slightly more complex games use the riddle cards. Instructions are also given for variations that involve playing the game as a cooperative team, playing riddle solitaire, and playing a matching game through associations with the objects on the cards. The I Spy Memory Game comes with 60 memory cards, 15 riddle cards, and an instruction booklet. --Marcie Bovetz

5.0 out of 5 stars A classic game with a refreshing new look., August 12, 1999

This review is from: I Spy Memory Game (Toy)

The game of memory is a great equalizer because little children are just as apt to remember where they saw the hidden images as older children or adults. This makes it great game for the whole family to play together. The images from the "I Spy" book illustrations are bright and creative. They don't match exactly- for instance, there might be two images of cats, but borrowed from different photographs in the I Spy books. So there is a bit more visual variety to spice things up. This is a much more attractive memory game than most, and would make an ideal gift for a child or family.

This review is from: I Spy Memory Game (Toy)

This is a great family game. Young children can play this game as well as adults. My son who is four loves this game. It is a traditional game with a new look. Some of them are a little bit difficult in that the matches might have different backgrounds or be a silghtly different view of the same item. It makes you think.

We have enjoyed the books and now we enjoy the game. The pictures on the game look like they come right from the book.

I particularly like that this game will grow with my children. There are riddle cards that you can use in one type of game. And directions for other games as well.

Enjoy.

This review is from: I Spy Memory Game (Toy)

My grandchildren loved this game from the first time we
brought it out of the "game closet". Ages 6 and 9 and
Grandpa and Grandma had a wonderful time !
It's a little difficult at first, as all really good games are,
but well worth the time spent. The children were very quick
to find the various "things". It is a good mental focus style
of game and one that makes a child look and really "see".
We recommended this to another family whose children couldn't
seem to settle down and focus. They enjoyed the game as well.
Definitely worth the [...]!!
