I love word games. For parties, on the computer, or just with my husband, I will always choose a “wordy” game if I have the choice. One of my all-time favorite word games is Scattergories. I was hooked when it first came out!
And now, there’s Electronic A to Z Junior by Fundex Games! It’s an electronic, handheld party game that’s like Scattergories on steriods. It’s timed, but it also beeps, flashes, and allows you to yell out answers while simultaneously hitting the letter buttons to make the light turn off. It’s highly addictive and utterly exciting!
The kids have a blast with it….but I have to be honest….my husband and I have had just as much fun with it ourselves! Even one player can play…..so it’s like an electronic mind puzzle for one….or combine up to four people (or teams) for a competitive, quick-thinking challenge!
The lights, beeps, buzzes, and blips do their job to make the game fun and keep your blood pressure mounting while you race against the ticking built-in timer. The topic cards are handily tucked into a tray in the back, so no extra pieces to keep up with for travel.
Electronic A to Z Junior is a great game for children learning what words begin with certain letters — another way to make learning fun! It’s recommended for ages 5 and up. It retails for $29.99 and can be found at ToysRUs, ToysRUs.com, Amazon.com, and many other retailers. Act quickly — this would make a great last-minute Christmas gift!!
Win it! Fundex Games has so very generously offered up FIVE Electronic A to Z Junior games to five of you lucky Muse Reviews readers! All you need to do is drop by Fundex Games and tell me one other game they carry that you think your kids would flip for. That’s it! I’ll close the contest at 11pm EST on December 28, 2008 and announce the 5 winners the next day. Good luck!
