All across America, kids are having fun with "Brain Quest", the national bestseller with over 12 million copies in print. Curriculum-based, with questions and answers drawn from material used in schools around the country, "Brain Quest" tests kids on the stuff they need to know, when they need to know it -- while capturing all the excitement of a down-to-the-wire quiz game. All sets have two decks of cards (except My First, which has three), with each deck hinged together by a plastic bolt. Early Childhood sets have full-color illustrations and are designed for play-and-learn moments, emphasizing development, not testing. Sets for older kids have categories of questions coordinated by symbol. Answer cards immediately follow question cards. Printed on durable stock, each set is packaged in an unbreakable clear box with a color-coordinated lid. Selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club, Scholastic Book Club, and Newbridge Book Club. "Brain Quest" goes beyond simple memorization and encourages kids to use reasoning, listening, and visualization skills, which increases its educational and entertainment value". -- Sesame Street Parents "TM" Fun to look at, fun to hold, fun to read, and fun to play, "Farm Animals" and "Cars & Trucks" for preschoolers takes "Brain Quest" away from the strict question-and-answer format. Instead, subject matter is covered on side one of the card, and the cards read consecutively, like a series of little books. But when parents and children turn the cards over to side two, they'll find mazes, match games, puzzles to solve, circles to draw in, and other activities pertaining to each subject. The subjects are two natural ones for kids ages 1-4: "FarmAnimals" and "Cars & Trucks". Remember, It's O.K. to Be Smart "RM" -- and it's never too early to start. Full-color throughout; die-cut question and answer cards hinged together by a plastic bolt; 36 cards per deck; deck: 3 5/8" x 6 1/8"; each deck blister-packed to a die-cut backer that has a punch-out hole; package: 5" x 8 1/4" Brain Quest Cars & Trucks Hautzig, Deborah<
