Product Review - The ChildUp Early Learning Game Cards

~ Posted on Saturday, September 10, 2011 at 11:24 AM ~

I received an email from Charisse of ChildUp Team last month asking whether I'm interested in reviewing their products and I'm glad I replied with my interest to review their products. I have earlier posted on my review for their "iCount-to-10 ChildUp Early Learning App". Here goes my review on "The ChildUp Early Learning Game Cards" after trying the game cards on several occassions with Ben...

Ben immediately points to the farm animals' series when I asked him which cards he wants to play with first. I kept the rest and practised the farm animal series of cards with him as I wanted him to get familiar with the cards.

How I Tested the Cards?

I started with the first pack of the cards with Ben by getting him to be familiarised with the animals on the farm, followed by the number of animals (from 1 to 10) and I then asked him what are the animals for the cards I picked and the number of animals on the card picked.

As of end of August, he has yet to master the numbering part but he does answer quickly when it comes to naming the animals on the cards. Video below taken on the 2nd time we used the cards can be viewed at: http://youtu.be/oyDp8yNFEWI

I would definitely continue using this as I feel there is much more potential for this cards on Ben.

What's good?

*  I like that I can teach Ben on counting from 0 to 10.

*  I like that the cards come with both sides showing different designs (one showing the animals, the other side showing the animal with the number)

*  also like that I can teach my child the different types of animals.

Room for improvement?

* I would prefer if the cards are thicker. It somehow felt thin and fragile and I was worried it gets crumpled easily.

* I would prefer if there is just a standard sheet of paper for the Parent’s Cards so that I can read it at once (it also reduce paper wastage).
