Product Description

Editorial Review

The winner of an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award, Make It Up answers those probing questions about how something is made or what it's made up of. Each of the 18 sturdy cardboard story cards holds illustrations of five or more related items, with the center item located on a punch-out oval section. The game can be played alone or with one or two others, and the goal is to match each oval tile with its proper story card. For example, the birdhouse is matched with the bird, saw, nails and wood; the painting matches with the paint tubes, brush, palette, and blank canvas, and so on. The game comes with a Parents Guide of brief narratives for each card, along with rules for cooperative play and for memory/matching play. The game was designed by a practicing child psychotherapist and a child psychiatrist. --Ava Natov

Product Description

In Make it Up!, players match oval tiles to story cards to figure out how things are made. What's in it? Where does it come from? Why? By helping children figure out what goes together, Make it Up! answers some of those questions and stimulates more thought, curiosity, and cooperation. Included with the game is a Parents Guide to generate conversation and help families share ideas about how things are made.
