Review
I just bought this awesome game last night at the UNI Bookstore. The game was so cool looking that I had to buy it. I think that Jonah and Emily will both enjoy this game. What a great way to squeeze in science concepts and promote higher level thinking. Tonight I want to break it out and start advancing through the levels with Jonah. I looked on-line and noticed that this is the only game of it's kind. I could invision a series of these games. Different animals in different habitats. What are your thoughts? Gibbs, do you have this game at your bookstore?

It looks interesting, but I have no sense of how it works.

The polar bears go on the white ice and the fish go in the ocean. However, none of the animals can go over the top of an Inuit hunter.

Jonah has made it through three cards all on his own. The cards are all of the ice and ocean. The game is designed for 7 year olds and older. Jonah is four and understands the concept pretty well. There are 40 something levels ranging from easy to advanced.

Interesting idea. It's always so hard to know what's going to trip their trigger or not.

Related but not entirely - I'm considering a huge floor puzzle for Lucy's birthday (48 pcs, either the Solar System or songbirds).

Thanks for responding to this. I would not have sent you the e-mail prompting you to respond if I knew of your tech issues. After I sent you my e-mail I then read your post. Sorry!
