5.0 out of 5 stars Really a lot of fun, December 9, 2007

No, it's not a guide book, it's an imaginative interactive puzzle book/contest and a lot of fun for kids. My 10 year old loved this book and it "tricked" him into keeping a "journal". Many years from now he'll enjoy reading some of his thoughts and even sketches from his first (and assuredly not his last) trip to Florence. It's fun for parents, too, and provokes a lot of interesting discussions. We highly recommend this book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Some kids might like this, July 4, 2007

This review is from: Kids Go Europe: Treasure Hunt Florence (Spiral-bound)

I like the pocket size of this book, plenty of room for children to write, too. There just isn't much to it. I like some of the open ended questions and think others are too broad. The use of space is odd in some places. It makes sense that there is room for kids to write and draw, but a blank page follows things like a simple yes/no question. The little game is engaging. In the end, this is a small work, small game. Some kids might like it. Take a look at this one: Kids Europe Italy Discovery Journal

2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing like the Venice version, September 24, 2010

This review is from: Kids Go Europe: Treasure Hunt Florence (Spiral-bound)

I love the idea behind Kids Go Europe and the "Treasure Hunt Venice" version is wonderful (six stars and up, really :-). Exciting and very engaging for children. "Treasure Hunt Florence" doesn't live up to that benchmark. It isn't as creative and is flat out boring for most of the time.
