Two Classy Chics

Today I would like to introduce you to the company called Educational Insights based out of Southern California. Educational Insights is the manufacturer of playful products with serious educational value, including subject-specific classroom products, teacher resources, educational toys, and games. Their products are designed by seasoned educators & parents who know that children love to learn when you make that learning experience fun!

When you visit the Educational Insights online web site you will find that it’s really easy to navigate. The web site has three tabbed categories which are the sections for Parents, Teachers and Classroom Jeopardy. Since I am a mother and grandmother…I could spend hours just browsing around their parent’s section of the web site.

My Review: The great folks over at Educational Insights sent me the “Grandma’s Trunk Alphabet Game” to review for all of you. This wonderful game is made for ages 5 and up and comes packaged in an adorable cardboard trunk! I love the graphics on it and I love how the game stores safely inside it.

There are 5 different ways that this game can be played and that is a great feature so that your kids will never get bored with it. (or us grandparents who play along with our grandkids). Kids will practice letter names, sounds, build memory skills, create stories and play fun riddle games.

When you open the darling little trunk you will find an instructional guide, 26 fun riddle cards and 26 alphabet picture cards (with upper and lower-case letters; color-coded red vowels and blue consonants on one side). You can play 5 different games with this set or make up your own games! (1) What Comes Next? game (2) Memory Time game (3) Letter Sequence Memory game (4) Grandma’s Riddles game (5) Grandma’s Adventures game.

My grand-wee-one is almost 3 years old so this game is a tad advanced for her (even though she is advanced for her age). We decided to use the game as alphabet flash cards to help teach her ABC’s and let me tell you…she is doing extremely well with that! Since the cards are also colorful they are great teaching tools to teach toddler’s their colors too. I love how everything packs inside the little trunk for storage. (it’s way too cute!). I am really looking forward to continuing to work with grand-wee-one using this set and I am sure as we go along she will learn even more so that we can actually play the 5 games. I really love this set!!!
