This review is from: 10 Days In The Usa Game (Toy)

We got this game to work on US geography with the kids (6&8). The game exceeds our expectations in that it is fun to play as well. After opening it we played 4 straight games. There is a good bit of strategy to chosing the states and transportation methods. Also, figuring out where your opponent is heading and trying to block them adds a new dimension.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best States Game Ever!, October 27, 2006

This review is from: 10 Days In The Usa Game (Toy)

We just got this a few days ago & already my 6yr old yells out, "you can't do that, Maryland is on the east side, I think you meant to get Montana!" It's great for every age. I thought I'd have to play with my 6 yr. old a few games to get him started but he wanted to do it himself. My 9yr old loves it, and so do I. We can't get enough. You'll be surprised how quickly you know which states to look for. The object of the game is to make connections for a 10 day journey, touring by plane,car, and on foot. This is also a great tool for Home Schooling. I'm going to buy, "10 Days In Europe" also. Great FUN!!!

This review is from: 10 Days In The Usa Game (Toy)

10 Days in the U.S.A. is a great addition to Out of the Box's 10 Days game series. All the versions (U.S.A., Asia, Europe and Africa) offer a fun and challenging game that, in the process, teaches you the geography of the U.S.A. (or Asia, Europe, or Africa). Can you create a 10-day trip, traveling by foot, by plane and by car? Each game is a new adventure!

I've played 10 Days with kids from 6 to 15, and all have enjoyed themselves... and I did, too! 10 Days in the U.S.A. (or Asia, Europe or Africa) is a great addition to any home or classroom games collection.
