This review is from: 10 Days in Africa Game (Toy)

10 Days in Africa is a terrific game for all ages - I have played it with people from 9 to 66 years old and every age in between and everyone can enjoy it. It's also a great way to learn the geography of Africa. We changed 1 rule and it works better. Our rule: When you start the game,you have to place the cards in your tray in the order in which you pick them up. I also tried 10 Days in Europe but the game does not work as well with that continent. I want to try 10 Days in US soon.

This review is from: 10 Days in Africa Game (Toy)

Our 8 year old had been studying Geography and specifically the continent of Africa. When I found this game last christmas I was excited and thought that we would get a few good hours of play out of it. The family plays still it often, there is not a boredom factor that inhibits the enjoyment and we have been known to play three games in a row at one sitting. We have all gotten more familiar with the continent as we plan our trips for ten day in Africa.

This review is from: 10 Days in Africa Game (Toy)

Wow! My 9 year old learned the locations of every major country in Africa within a week of getting this game! The whole family loves it, including grandma (and teens, who are often harder to please). It does not cover some of the smaller African nations. But for learning where places like Eritrea and Togo are, it's not only a painless geography lesson, it's great fun. It's also sturdy, with no small pieces to lose (except the cards, which are thick and substantial, so they don't get lost easily. The game is also very easy to learn, so guests can join in right away. And games don't last long, so it's a great one to pull out when you only have 20 minutes.
