Great States Posted 7/17/2008 by Anne Winjum
I have decided to homeschool my 8 and 9 year old daughters and have been searching "games" that fit with our lesson plans. The three of us played "Great States" today for an hour and learned many, many facts about our country, all the while having fun! Isn't this what learning is all about?! The game is colorful, sturdy, thorough and accurate. Games like this help me keep the kids learning instead of watching mindless TV. Thank you Fat Brain!
Great learning tool! Posted 8/12/2008 by Lynda Cohen
I have enjoyed the Great States Junior with my grandchildren (for non-readers). This is the next step up. It is a fun way to learn about our country for elementary/middle school children and a good review for us "older children" of all ages. It has different levels and some variations also; this keeps it interesting & challenging for the more knowledgeable individual. I also work in a special education setting & plan on using it in this setting. Yes, I agree with other reviews that the cardstock quality could be better but that is minor to me.
Very educational game Posted 7/25/2008 by DIANA
I bought this game for my 7 year old daughter. I am a home school teacher and I thought this would be a good game to use because we have been learning about all the states. This game is so fun that my daughter does not want to stop playing it, she loves it. We have learned so many things it is awsome. I would recommend this product to all parents and teachers. It is very fun and educational. A must have!
Great Learning Game Posted 3/3/2008 by William Murray
Great States game is a wonderful, fun tool to use in learning about the fifty states. The game is easy to set up and play, reading the instructions takes less than 5 minutes and you're playing. There is plenty of room for creativity in making your own variations for length of game and goals. It is fun to play with your children and even the adults learn! The only drawback is the low quality of the game cards which makes them awkward to use. Overall, we are pleased with this product.
LOVE this state game Posted 2/3/2011
I have 2 girls, 3 & 5, that are very interested in the country. We have the Scrambled States game which my 5 year old loves but wanted to pick up something we could all play. They both want to play it constantly. The three year old knows all of the states around us and can find every state that we have visited. It is amazing!
Birthday Gift Posted 1/20/2011 by Beverly Ashley - GRANDPARENT
The children were very pleased with the game.
Great Educational Game Posted 12/29/2010 by CAROL
My daughter loves this game! It is great for early elementary aged kids. It is a great way to learn more about the United States. I am even learning some nuggets of information I didn't know before.
Great States Posted 11/18/2009 by Teresa Rowles
It is for a gift for my grandson. He is in 4th grade and learning all about the states. Even though I have not yet openned the gift, the description and information on the game itself sounds like it will be a great learning tool for him.
My rating of Great States - 10th Anniversary Edition Posted 8/23/2008 by Susan in SC
I purchased this game as a gift for my 9 year old nephew, he loves it. It is both fun and educational, a winning combination!
Neat Game! Posted 6/19/2008 by Christy Koense
This is a neat game! My 7 and 8 year old got right into it and were able to successfully play right away. It is a fun way to practice geography skills. The format is wide open for how you can modify it to the level of your children...we just enjoyed playing without the timer. The only complaint is that the spinner came apart a few times. I was able to fix it without an issue, but thought I would mention it. The board and cards are very durable.
Very Pleased Posted 12/30/2007 by Anna Pogan-Hegtun
Great States is age appropriate, with words and pictures for even the youngest player to understand. Our 4 yr old can play with the family as he can see the pictures and point to the words on the map. The older kids 7 and 8 enjoy the game very much because it is easy for them to read and understand and it goes along with things they are learning in school. We adults enjoyed it too. While it is easy for the kids, it is interesting for the adults. We are very happy with the game. The only thing that would make it better is a spinner not made of cardboard which in small hands becomes slightly bent and then not easily spun. A plastic spinner would add better quality to the game.
A rating of Great States - 10th Anniversary Edition Posted 1/3/2011 - RELATIVE
Excellent game for any young person interested in learning more about our great country; however, it is fun for all ages. The rules are such that you can make the game more difficult for more advanced players. Rules are simple and clear. It is hard to find a game as fun and educational as "Great States."

Wow, we first played it with one set of grandchildren and enjoyed it so much we decided to order for all our grandchildren and their families.
Product review of Great States - 10th Anniversary Edition Posted 6/16/2008 by Ann
Great game for all ages -- The younger children can look at the map to find answers and adults can be challenged by not being allowed to view the map to find answers. This game is both fun and educational.

Review for Great States - 10th Anniversary Edition Posted 3/24/2008 by Julie W.
Great game! My 7 year old has had it for one day and is already learning so much. Even the "fun" cards make him think!
Great States Posted 12/11/2007 by Stacey Krawczyk
This is a most excellent game! My boys are 6 and 7 and we can adjust the play to meet them where they are at and can grow with them as they get older. We ordered because we saw it at the Indianapolis Children's Museum gift shop and looked it up online when we got home to order.
