Editorial Review

Young fans of Dr. Seuss couldn't ask for a better deal. University Games has bundled together two fun card games--each based on a beloved book by Seuss--in one pleasing package. One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Go Fish! is a colorful, preschool-friendly version of the family favorite, Go Fish. Every card features a number and a color ("six fish, blue fish," for example), and players can make matched pairs out of either. As in the traditional game, the player with the most pairs wins. Horton Hears A Who! is a bit more complex. Players compete to find all three Who cards and Jo-Jo (the littlest Who). The hidden objective is to save the Whos from being dropped into a pot of boiling beezle-nut oil. The animals--other than Horton, of course--don't believe in the existence of Whoville, which sits on the clover they're threatening to drop into the pot unless they hear the Whos yell. But the Whos can't be heard until the last remaining Whos add their voices to the clamor. Both games can be played by two or more. One Fish, Two Fish is for ages 3 and older, and Horton for ages 4 and older. --Rachel Radway

Product Description

Dr. Seuss puts fun in the fundamentals! These card games use favorite characters from classic tales to help your little ones learn how to recognize colors and numbers. The Lorax Game, based on protecting the environment, gets kids collecting Truffula Trees and make matches based on colors. The slightly more advanced One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish Game lets kids make matches based on both colors and numbers. Both games are easy to learn and play. For 2 or more players.

This review is from: The Lorax/One Fish Bonus Pack (Toy)

One fish two fish red fish go fish is a great card game, and the instructions are on the back of the box . The cards are a nice larger version of your standard deck of cards. The bright colors are great. The game is simple and good for ages 3 and up I'd say (matching and counting skills) but the Whorton hears a Who is a bit too complicated, I thought to start playing right away and is definitely for older kids like 4 and up...Maybe if you are familiar with the story of Whorton's Who by dr. seuss the game will make more sense. Otherwise, my son enjoys playing these card games and learns your basic card game skills like shuffling, dealing, turn taking etc...

My three year old loves playing Dr. Seuss's Go Fish game. Of course she loves all the Dr. Seuss's books too. We play using the numbers because the cards have different colors on them and she doesn't quite understand playing with just the color of the fish yet. We also start out with 3 cards instead of the recommended 5 because my daughter's hands are a little small to hold so many cards. Great game in teaching/reinforcing manners, numbers, matching and just having family fun!
