This review is from: Presto Change - O (Toy)
the crystal balls on the gameboard and the heavy use of magic on the board also. For many this won't be a problem, but with some people it is.Some games meant to be educational and enjoyable at the same time, have too heavy an emphasis on education, and no fun, but this is not. This is very enjoyable and educational at the same time! My little girl asks to play it all the time.

This review is from: Presto Change - O (Toy)
Twenty years ago,we bought this game for our older son when he was 7. In his toddler years he showed an interest in counting, as well as in board games. We soon sought out games that would blend his interests with his skills. "Presto Change-O" became a favorite. His math skills grew, and his ability to grasp the concepts needed to make change, using the play money, soared. In fact at the age of 8, he actually got a job at a local farmers market. His job was to make change for the numerous customers, as well as help with several other tasks.To this day, my husband, son and I credit "Presto Change-O" will helping to develop and fortify our son's math and commerce skills. Twenty years after mastering this wonderful game, he is a successful business man.

This review is from: Presto Change - O (Toy)
This game is so nice. It is actually fun to play and all that making change does make your kids really GET making change FAST! The problem is, it takes FOREVER to play - like upwards of 2.5 hours. I made my kids do all their change themselves, so maybe that's why it took us so long. But the whole point of buying this game is the educational value, so making the change for your kids would be pointless. I tried to tweak the game so that it would take less time, but if you do that you lose a TON of the educational value, since in order to have exactly the types of money needed to win the game, the kids really have to think through making change. I am still glad I bought it, but I will not get as much use out of it as I hoped. If the game took 25 minutes I would do it once a week. But at 2.5 hours, it's more likely that we will take it out once in a great while.
