'Guess Who?'
"Guess Who?" is a game for two players, although you can play with two small teams, age 6 and up. Each person chooses a "mystery face" at the beginning of the game. The other player uses their game board with all the mystery faces and the process of elimination to determine which mystery face the other player has. As each child takes a turn asking a yes-or-no question, such as "does your person have a mustache?" they place the mystery faces not fitting the description in their question face down until all that's left is the face the other player has. This game uses critical thinking skills and children enjoy playing it over and over again. Initially, this game requires a fair amount of assembly but once this is done it doesn't need to be repeated.
'Twister'
"Twister" has been around since 1969 becoming famous when Johnny Carson played the game on his television show "The Tonight Show." Physical dexterity, body awareness and motor skills are involved in playing "Twister" as you twist, turn and bend to try to place your hands and feet on the color of spot designated by the turn of the spinner. As the designated spinner calls out, "left food on red," children ages 6 and up have fun while practicing body part and color recognition. This game is for two or more players.
'Rush Hour Deluxe'
"Rush Hour Deluxe" is a game for one player, age 8 and up, but you can work together as a family or team to solve this three-dimensional puzzle. This challenging game of creative thinking, reasoning and logic is similar in concept to games like Rubik's Cube. Rush Hour Deluxe consists of a game board, escape car and 15 vehicles. Players face 60 different challenges and levels of play as they try to race out of bumper-to-bumper traffic gridlock.
