by ruggie , Nov 10 '00
Pros: educational, portable

GeoSafari

by debbyberry , Jun 27 '00
Pros: Great questions; can handicap more skilled players
Cons: Noises are repetitive and can be loud
There are certain things I cannot walk past in the store without playing with. Those chocolate-covered mint Grasshopper cookies in the grocery store, for example; I have to fiddle with those. One item I am compelled to play with whenever I pass it in the...

A Must in the UK
by buymeuk ,Oct 26 '05
Pros: This really does make learning fun!
Cons: But None
With UK Government insisting on massive emphasise on literacy, numeracy and science children are leaving junior school (aged 11) with little or no knowledge of geography!
