The PLYT Board Game 5/5
The box has a
good design and I thought the game might help the children learn maths skills. The
game has a good Sturdy box, and everything has its place. The concept is great,
the kids were learning while playing, and loved it. It really is a game the
whole family can play I’m not great with games like this; the instructions that
came with it are easy to understand. They
understood the concept of the game even my 11yr old ADHD son had no problems
with this. This game had the older boys playing for ages; they still ask to
play every day so yes I think it keeps their attention. My 7yr old is learning
to take turns without shouting at his brother, they both find maths hard but
this is really helping them. They both loved playing this for ages. We would
play this as a family with 5 of us and the boys would play each other too. All
the children are quiet close in age but they all presented different ways of
working things out. My 7yr old wasn’t so keen but the 11yr old loved pushing
himself. This did help build their confidence in numbers and maths after
playing the game. We did go onto the
website and used the top tips and options.
This is a great game that you can continue to learn from and play for
years to come. I don’t think they
have found other ways to play the game yet, but no doubt they will in the
future. It’s great quality. Certainly
value for money. Nothing we did not like
about this game. I would purchase this
game and would certainly recommend. It’s
a great game to help children push the self and learn maths. Kelly Chamberlain –

The PLYT Board Game 4/5
Bright
and cheerful, clear and simple. The game required a lot of adult input, a game
for the whole family. Easy for adult to understand and explain in clear concept
to child. My son did understand when
explained in child friendly way. I think 4 was a little young but I took it to
school to play with 5/6 year olds and they enjoyed it more. This game is great
for building confidence with number and multiplication. Simple enough for my son to play with adult
intervention. Kept interest of older children for longer they loved using their
times tables. We normally played this
with 4 players of different ages. They
did not push outside the comfort zone as not confident enough with numbers at
this age. Confidence was improved with
children from my school (5/6 year olds) and we used fix dice to embed times
tables. Did not go online to use the top
tips and options available. This game is
a great teaching tool and will use with my child again when older and can hold
his interest longer. With the children at school we used the fix dice method to
embed their times tables. My child used the dice to add numbers together and
make up his own sums and move his counter along the board. Good quality game. Reasonable value. I thought it was a good product for older
children and could use to embed many concepts of multiplication in a fun way. I
would purchase for use in school with older children. I would recommend to friends of older
children or in school. A super game to
embed concept of multiplication. Hannah

The PLYT Board Game 4/5
The box is
very colourful, I feel there is a bit too much going on, needs toning down to attract
more attention. The game is easy itself once you understand the
concept. My daughter struggled at first
and needed my help. Certainly kept her attention, while we played it. She
found it very long winded but never the less she enjoyed the game and asked to
play it again. The game is very educational, although it was as challenging for
her, my son (6) also enjoyed helping his sister. Once the concept was
understood my child found it easily enough to play. We would normally play this game with 2-3
players. I played with, my son; and daughter all together and at different
times. My daughter definitely tried to push herself to challenge her school
knowledge. My son’s confidence has defiantly improved. We did not go onto the
website to check out the top tips and options.
I feel it will last my children will be able to use this game for a few
years and help improve their school work. Good toy. Sturdy and well
manufactured. I’m not sure I’d pay the retail value of this toy. I think it
should be placed in a lower price bracket to attract more customers. I plan on
playing the game when friends come round. I feel the game will be good for them
but the price might be off putting. Overall a good educational product that with
a few slight adjustments can really excel in educational games. A good
educational game to test your child. Kate
