Customer Review: Buy at least 2




This is a great toy. So many toys are played with once and then never used again. Not this one. Its now August and when kids come over they love to play with it- most have never seen it. There is non-stop creativity. But you do need to buy at least 2 of the kits. We bought one for my son and another for my daughter so it is a shared toy for them. There are not enough pieces in one kit to make much. There is a 'floor' that comes with it, that helps to add some stability, but it is difficult for an adult to put the 'floor' in- and forget it when kids go in and out of the fort- the floor is all over the place. With two kits you have enough pieces to add stability at the base and still build up. I wish we bought a third!- but that is on the docket for this christmas- mainly to replace worn out parts.






It reminds me of giant tinker toys. Which is what makes it so much fun. We've had at least six kids in our forts. The orange pieces can break if the kids get too rough, but we've only lost one thus far.






I think there is one review that talks about the danger in using the poles as swords. Our kids have done this on a couple of occassions, but they have been sternly reprimanded and reminded that this is a building toy and it will be taken away if it is used as swords. As long as the parents are involved and monitoring the use in the first couple of months, everyone will have fun and stay safe. We no longer have issues with using the toy as swords. We drove home the point by hitting paper with the tubes. THe kids saw the paper rip and of course we said that could be their skin. ( A child would really have to whack HARD to draw blood in my opinion, but the dramatics helped get the point across)






I would highly recommend.




Customer Review: Hours of Fun!




Our 3yr old son LOVES his super fort! It does require an adult to help construct it for stability purposes and sometimes he has the most fun taking it back apart or playing with the poles as swords or pretend robot legs. The vinyl pieces come off really easily with his rough play so we are constantly having to "repair" his tunnel, house, etc. It's a minor inconvenience for how much he really loves this fort. Our 8 month old loves the fort too, however she's too rough and usually ends up pulling the whole structure down just by leaning on it.

Customer Review: Cute game.




Good game for young gamers. In my mind any game is good if they will play it for starts and if they learn something playing it. This did both.

Cranium - Cranium Cariboo

Cranium Cariboo

Cranium Cariboo


Cranium Cariboo is the all-new, magical treasure-hunt game designed especially for young minds. Kids will love exploring the golden island of Cariboo, where they'll find castles, boats, balloons and more. Their eyes will light up as each turn gives them the chance to match fun drawings, unlock secret doors and discover hidden treasure. Multiple matching activities reinforce four early-learning fundamentals: ABCs, numbers, shapes and colors.




Customer Review: Cariboo is a hit with my grandchildren




I ordered Cariboo for two sets of grandchildren. Both found the game highly entertaining and stimulating. The mother's loved it too. My order through Amazon arrived in Houston in good time even amidst hurricane Ike.




Customer Review: Great game for toddlers/preschoolers




Our 2.5 year old loves this game! Educational and fun. Can be modified to make it easier for younger kids or a bit more challenging for preschoolers.

Cranium - Cranium Bumparena

Cranium Bumparena

Cranium Bumparena


Cranium Bumparena is the outrageous game that keeps everyone on the edge of their seats. Place the bumpers on the Bumparena board to guide the balls into your goal. Think you've got, the perfect plan' One twist of a bumper can change the outcome in a flash. And once the balls start to fall, you never know which way they'll roll. The first player to score six goals is the winner. No two games are the same, but each one is full of excitement and laughter. Everyone will enjoy its unpredictable fun.




Customer Review: not so much fun!!




We love the Cranium games at our home...we have several, however, this one fell short as far as we are concerned. The kids simply found it boring and enjoyed throwing the bouncing balls rather than playing the game. We'll stick too some of the other cranium games.




Customer Review: Lot's of Fun!




Bought this for my nephew's 7th birthday last year. It has gotten much play and is still in great shape. Lot's of fun/challenge arranging the bumpers to channel the balls in your direction. I enjoy playing with them as well. Highly reccomended!

Cranium Wacky Words



Wacky Words is the madcap game of fill-in-the-blank fun. "Dear Diary... Johnny is the dreamiest monkey I know. He makes me feel like doughnuts in the springtime." What!? You and your family and friends will have hilarious fun working together to create headline stories, book reports, vacation postcards and even horoscopes in a game of fill-in-the-blank fun. Quick and easy to play. Game includes 20 story cards, five secret keepers, six dry-erase pens, eraser, letter spinner, scorecard and rules sheet. Tin measures 10" x 6.5". For 4-6 players.




Customer Review: Get ready for hilarious stories!




This is one of the most fun games parents can play with the 6 & older children. Spelling does not have to be perfect. Each person has a chance to be the judge of the answers, so kids are thoroughly involved.










One card is chosen for the game. The other players get a two sided magnetic yellow board to write their answers on; the judges reads the first sentence, which may have 1 or 2 blanks in it. The judge pushes the little spinner and that is the letter everyone must use for their first worrd. These are passed in, and mixed up -- then the judge distributes them again.










You may get your own, you may not. When the two blanks are filled, the judge reads all the answers (along with the sentences) and then chooses the winner to be written on the erasable story card.










The card passes to the next person, who becomes the judge. This continues until the story is completed -- then it is read. Very fun for both kids and adults.

Customer Review: Fun Had By All
This is a great game to play in a group, both individually and/or in teams. I had this game shipped to my daughter's dorm room at NYU and she now hosts Cranium Nights! The game requires a certain amount of luck, strategy and skill, and the participants need to be able to make fools of themselves in order to act out the various loopy challenges. OUr family is very competitive and this is our favorite board game (other than scrabble)! Hope you enjoy it as well! Cheers!
Customer Review: Good improvement over original
Cranium Turbo edition is a great improvement over the original. The main advantages are that the whole game tends to move faster, largely because you don't get stuck on one color space like you could in the first version, and great new categories that encourage more team members to participate. Good examples are the marionette-like charades, and a team-based Gnilleps (in contrast to the single player based type). Lastly, Humdingers are much easier now, using many youngsters' songs that more people will recognize (e.g., The Wheels on the Bus Go Round and Round) and not obscure pop songs.

The only con I have to mention is the timer. I'm not a big fan of electronic devices to needlessly simulate dice and a sandglass, but some of my friends think that it is an improvement.
