Product Description

Amazon.com Teacher Review
Venture into Escapades, and you may never be bored again. The game, which is actually 300 games in one, captured the Parents' Choice Gold Award, and it's easy to see why. The creators of this ingenious deck of 300 cards combed the finest books on cooperative games for the very best ideas. The result: a spectacular collection of games, including team-building activities, question-and-answer games, and raucous relay races. Each card describes rules of play and needed supplies and is color-coded to fall into one of three categories: low, semi, and high action levels. The low-action cards can entertain families for hours on the road, and the high-energy ones will keep your parties hopping. --Trilby Cohen has spent most of the past decade as a primary school teacher and reading specialist in north Seattle public schools.

5.0 out of 5 stars The whole family can be involved!, October 5, 1999

By A Customer

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

Do not be fooled by the size of the box, Escapades packs something for everyone in this container. You have over 300 different activities for individuals to large groups, from the very young to adult. Talicor has created a product that should allow everyone to enjoy him or herself.

While the game instructions are easy to follow and you up and running in virtually no time, the game cards should have the ages printed on them. The cards are easy to understand although most cards are geared for the younger crowds.

The game comes with category dividers and is reasonably priced. The activities are excellent for good interaction and are interesting. The game requires the player to provide common household items to play. Most cards have clear simple instruction with pictures to show you what to do.

Escapades would be an excellent aide for teachers and families. You have enough things to do, so even on the rainy day you can find just the right activity for fun.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for Team Building Too, April 25, 2008

By	Sean Mcfeely - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 

This game is a huge resource for any youth worker or team building facilitator. It has tons of ideas geared by activity level. You can continually add new games to your bag of tricks with this set. It is a real bargain compared to some very highly priced team building card sets on the market. I used this set for three years with my youth group and keep them fully engaged during game time each week without running out of new things to try. I also have used them with corporate team building groups. I can't see really playing this with my family since my kids are under 7. I don't know if I ever would use it in the way it was designed. But I LOVE it as a team building and group game resource.
