My First BrainBox

With fifty-five sturdy picture/question cards, My First BrainBox is a game that can be used for many years, in many ways. For a very young child each charming illustration can be a springboard to developing fundamental observation skills. If you don’t know what to ask, use the questions on the back as your basic starting point. Designed especially for pre-readers, there are no words on the fronts of the cards, just child-friendly images.

The next step would be to have your children study the picture and tell you a story about it. This develops their imagination and logic skills as they strive to make sense of the unknown. Then, as your child matures, he will be ready to develop both his short and long-term memory, so challenge him to recall the details after he has studied a card for ten seconds. A die is rolled, and if your child can answer the corresponding question on the back of the card, the card is his. This will encourage his visual memory and even his auditory processing skills. You know how deficient young children can be in both arenas, and you will hard-pressed to find another program that addresses these needed proficiencies in such an effortless manner.

BrainBox games develop both short and long term memory by challenging children to recall what they saw. Players study a game card for 10 seconds trying to memorize a variety of features. A die is rolled and if the player can answer the corresponding question, the card is his. Play until one child has won a set amount of cards or play until all cards are acquired.
