Super Duper Publications products are perfect gifts for your kids this year because they are educational and a lot of fun. I had the delight of reviewing three of their products, Jeepers Peepers - The Ask & Answer Question Game, Party Pups - The Game of Prepositional Fun & Anytime Go-Togethers Super Photo Fun Deck.
The first game, Jeepers Peepers is a question game with 101 photo cards in five different categories: Animals, Food, People, Things, and Transportation. The game comes with 6 pairs of Jeepers Peepers glasses, "My Cue Cards", 101 photo cards (4" x 5"), Spinner and bingo chips, and an Instruction booklet.
This game "builds questioning skills, describing skills, categorizing skills, problem solving skills, and more!"
The rules to the game are very simple. Everyone wears a pair of glasses and a card is attached to the top without the person seeing what is on the card. After everyone has their glasses on and a card is placed on their heads, you start asking questions until you figure out what is on your glasses. The glasses are absolutely hilarious, we laughed so hard!
We went around the circle, and the first person to guess the right answer won. The round went for quite a while, so we didn't end up using the spinner and the chips. But, if you plan on playing a few rounds the spinner and chips would be a lot of fun. We had a blast playing this game as adults, so I am sure our kids will love it too when they are a little older.
The second product we reviewed is the Anytime Go-Togethers Super Photo Fun Deck! My daughter loves this set of cards and asks to play with them every night. The deck of cards includes 84 photo card pairs and a handy tin to keep them in. I really have enjoyed the photos on these cards because their is such a variety and the photos are very clear and colorful!
My husband and I play a memory game with my daughter every night, which has been great for her. She just has so much fun and wants to play it over and over again. I have noticed her vocabulary getting better and she surprises me every time we play because she remembers where the matching card is better than I do! What I really like about this set is that I can switch out the cards every night when we play memory making it feel like a whole new game.
Lastly, we reviewed Party Pups. This game is super simple and is a great way to learn prepositions and creating sentences. "Players take turns choosing preposition cards, identifying the preposition on the cards, and using them in sentences. Players spin the electronic spinner and collect doggie treats which they place on their game boards. The player with the most doggie treats wins!"
