Take it from a family that doesn't like board games...American Trivia is a fun game that makes you feel smart when you play it. Even when you get an answer wrong, you're learning something. The questions allow you to integrate other tidbits of information or tell interesting stories that help reinforce the facts. I got it for my daughter for Christmas, but my mother and I play it even after she goes to bed because we know some of the answers and it makes us feel good! We have to remind ourselves it's a Junior edition so our heads don't get too big.

When my seven year old recently decided to learn the states and capitals, I thought this game would be a good way to get him to take the geography enthusiasm and branch out a bit. The questions are good general knowledge history and geography questions, not the ridiculously obscure kind, so it does build confidence and teach relevant US History. The box says Ages 9 & up, but we have a great time with the above-mentioned 7 year old, and he makes a very good showing on his own and is learning a lot! We are very happy with the purchase and would also buy as a gift.

We had the adult version of this game, which had an extra category, which we loved, but this junior version is a blast for our tween/teen kids

I am very pleased with the game. There is a great variety of questions from geography to history and current events. There are even sports trivia questions. My sixth grader and third grader alike enjoy the game. It might be a little easy for the high school aged child. It's a great game to learn and have fun at the same time.

Great trivia game. I bought it for my husband who is a Social Studies teacher. Of course he beats us all. We also take the cards to restaurants and play without the board while we wait for our food. Very educational and great conversation starters. We even had the wait staff at one place playing with us.

I bought this game for my 10 year old son and he loves it. Its all about American subjects...Geography,history,and general. A fun way for kids and adults to learn facts about America

too easy for the ages of the groups for which I purchased this item...however, a superb fun way for pre-teens to learn American History.....

The game itself is a really good game and educational. However, we were very disappointed to find that all the FLAG cards were missing and that about one third of the trivia cards were printed incorrectly meaning that the answers on the back were upside down and did not match the questions.

This is a wonderful game. My 10-year-old son and I play it. It's not so hard that he can't answer some of the questions, but he is learning new things also. I enjoy playing it, too.
