I bought this game not knowing what to expect. Of the 51 cards, there are many cards in this pack that were hits with my children (who are 4 and 6). Some of the cards are games, and some are thought-provoking questions (such as: what is your favorite color? food?). The cards are good conversation starters, and the children do get excited when we bring the box to the table. Each card can be played very quickly and with little preparation time or supplies. To play the games, children do not need to read.

Nevertheless, most of the ideas in the box are tried and true games that we adults have played at some point in our lives. (They will be new to your kids.) The box is a nice vehicle to lend excitement to familiar parlor games, but it is not necessary.

Am I glad that I bought the box? Yes. For a relatively small expenditure, I can have some creative ideas at my fingertips. Do you need this box to have family fun at the dinner table? No, but you will have to work a little harder to create the family fun without the pre-packaged suggestions.

Both my kids (5 and 2) enjoy and this game and it makes dinner time fun. I questioned whether to get this version or the older version for my 5 year old and she likes this younger version just fine. There are not many cards but she likes to play her favorite games over and over. Even though the 2 year old doesn't understand he picks up on the fun and some of the easy concepts.

We have had so much fun with this game. We love to play games at dinner so this allows everyone to participate. We recently had family in town and played young and old alike. Everyone had a blast and my son is learning a lot about taking turns, following directions and playing fair. I highly recommend.
