My almost 3 year old son loves these cards and asks daily to “do Max cards”. He has played with them without getting bored for almost a year now.

He is in weekly speech therapy for some delays due to unilateral hearing loss and these cards are a great supplement to the play sessions with his therapist. They prompt him to use question words, verbs, and understanding subjects like seasons, household tasks, and noun categories. His therapist has been really impressed with how he focuses on the details of the cards and concentrates on the question being asked.

He turns three at the end of the month and I am in the process of ordering the 3’s cards, and can’t wait for them to arrive.

The only thing confusing (to me, not my son yet) is that Max, his sister and his parents are all monkeys but the baby is a human baby. Not a big deal (we’re a multi-cultural family anyway)but I thought it was interesting.

Definitely get these cards without hesitation. They are well worth the money.

I bought these cards for an upcoming flight to keep my 2 year old busy. She has been playing with them for about 2 weeks and they keep her occupied for at least 10 minutes by herself. She just loves the foam cutout of “Max” that is included and brings him with her where ever she goes. Some of the questions are open ended so it gives us a chance to discuss things and not just memorize the right answer.

My 2-year old son is really into pointing out the names of things in books and in real life, so I figured this product would be a lot of fun for him to reinforce the vocabulary and concepts he is picking up every day. The drawings are decent, but not all that realistic in some areas – photographs of real objects are much more interesting to him right now. Overall, this product as fun for my son as I expected it to be – and I am not a mom who is into the flashcard concept, so I am certainly not going to try to make him go through these if he isn’t having a good time with it. We’ll be sticking with books and real life experiences to reinforce this type of learning.

I gor this for my 2 and 3 month year old and it’s too easy…I would say she can answer 98% of the questions. That being said, she absolutely adores this set anyway – and brings it to me regularly. I am now planning on purchasing the 3-4 year old set… hopefully it will be more educational.

I have just finally stumbled upon these cards & tried them out w/ my ‘just turned 3′ y/o daughter. She loooved them.. and answered 99% of the questions easily. (The other 1% were for answers that the picture was vague for or the correct answer was an ‘older’ term used vs. a ‘modern’ term.) I have since bought the Molly the Mouse ones & Amanda the Panda aged ones for her. My daughter is now hooked on Brainquest! I highly recommend them!
