Educational Travel Game

August 9, 2012

We love having a fun yet educational travel game with us when we go to all over North America for my husband’s work. (We travel so much, we have a lot of fun things we can do.) We are homeschooling our Princess and love to include games in her preschool homeschool time. So, when the opportunity arose to review Zingo! To Go from Thinkfun, I jumped at the chance. I knew my Princess would love this game that is for travel and like classic Bingo.

My Review of Zingo! To Go

The day this educational travel game arrived, my Princess could not wait to try it out. We played our first game right on the kitchen counter. We tied! She was happy to take it that afternoon grocery shopping and played the game again with her dad. Then the next day she played it alone on the way to church. Let’s just say she LOVES it. Simple to play with a four year old, it is just like the classic Bingo game.

The snap together game boards are somewhat difficult to attach together, so my Princess had to let us snap hers together. The pictures flip to create a traffic light and they are a bit stiff at first. After playing three games they loosen up though. We recommend this game to anyone with kids. Perfect for travel, easy to play, bright colors and recognizable pictures.
