Product Review: Flashcard Time: Brain Quest for Kids

I'm always looking for ways to challenge my preschooler. Like many kids, he gets bored easily. I received Brain Quest for 3 and 4 year olds from my mother. Thank goodness she found these, otherwise I would have just kept going past them in the store.

What's nice about these flashcards there is hinge to flip through the cards easily without getting the individual cards all over the place. There were definitely questions in the set that I had never thought of asking my son. He really had a great time and would ask me constantly to go through the cards. Eventually he knew all the questions, so I bought him the Pre-K stack. From what I can tell, each set of Brain Quest cards really matches up well with where their skill levels should be. I like that my son doesn't know all the answers, but that he knows enough not to get discouraged.

I will definitely continue to buy these cards and think any parent would like them as well.
