Great for developing listening skills, this trivia kit consists of two decks of cards, a set of instructions and a software cartridge for a FLY Pentop Computer (not included). There are eight games in total, that can be played alone or with as many as four other players. Each must hold an Answer Card (a key part of the game) which must be touched by the Fly Pen to change turns, enter an answer or pick a new category. The 68 trivia cards, which come in two decks, can be arranged into grids for games like Concentration, matched by pairs, or used in games like "Go Fish" with trivia questions driving the turns. There's a nice selection of questions covering history, current affairs, science, nature, animals, sports and more; although we did not play the game long enough to see if the questions were repeated. This would be a good rainy day activity for home or classroom. Created by BinaryLabs, Inc. (www.binarylabs.com) for Leapfrog.
