Minds That Play Monster Edition - Back to School Game for Fun Educational Matching - Memory Card Game for Kids Ages 4-5 - 6-7 - 8-9 - Perfect for Family & Children - Speech Therapy

I’m a school SLP, and I really like this game that was designed by a SLP. It really helps kids to work on using specific details, elaborating, and close listening in a fun way. I also use it with my more advanced articulation students as a tool to check for generalization of target sounds, good rate control, and clear enunciation.

As an SLP, I have used this game a TON since I bought it. It’s perfect for teaching describing and sentence structure (“Do you have a ______ monster with _____ and _______ ?”); turn taking; TH (with); /s/, /r/, and clusters (stripes, spots, horns, socks, eyes, wings, red, purple, green, orange, etc.). The longer I have it, the more reasons I find to love it. To the developer - thank you! This game is genius!

Esperaba mas grandes las tarjetas era un regalo para Chrismas desepcion

As a preschool teacher, I love this game and so do my students. I was drawn to it because it was created by a speech language pathologist. It allows my students to work on descriptive language and syntax. The kids are drawn to the cute characters and love playing it. It’s a must for any early childhood or elementary classroom!!

My 4.5yo has fun matching these up. We've played more as a matching game than describing but that's another way to play so these will be in our play circulation for at least a few years. Cards are thick and good quality but as most cards are, slippery, and were a little hard to play on the little table in the plane with them falling down.

Es un juego muy divertido, a mis hijas de 4 y 10 años les encantó. Hay dos versiones del juego y eso hace que sea muy versátil, además es muy pequeño y se puede transportar fácilmente a cualquier lugar.

I never write reviews but had to share. My cousins who are 4 and 10yrs old played a Go Fish version in order to save space at the restaurant while we were waiting for our food. Even the older kid enjoyed describing the monsters and the little one actually won the game because we told her that every detail added points. Great size for taking anywhere, and simple monster designs so there are no other distractions. They wanted to keep playing!

It is my error for not checking the dimensions, but for the price of these cards I would have expected larger cards. This would make the images stand out better as well as be easier for little hands to hold and manipulate.
