We are big fans of the Brain Quest series at our house. We have two other sets of Smart Cards (America and For the Car), and we use them every time we go camping. They spark conversation and competition, and we always have fun when they come out.
Brain Quest Presidents Smart Cards are a great addition to our collection. The set includes two sets of cards hooked together at the bottom. This keeps all the cards together, and makes it easier to jump between questions and answers. There’s a separate card for each of the presidents that includes highlights, and sometimes lowlights, from each of their terms. The information is balanced and based on fact.
We’ve learned so much as a family while playing Brain Quest Presidents Smart Cards. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it, or the other sets in the series. They’re especially fun on road and camping trips.
