Set Game
I purchased this game for my 9 and 6 year old. This has turned out to be our family game night favorite. The game builds analytical, observational skills. I would highly recommend it for kids above 6 years of age.

We played this game with our 10 year old boy and 12 year old girl. The boy loves the game and wanted to play it over and over again. We had to come up with a rule while he was learning the game that no one could call set for 5 seconds after the cards were dealt each time to give him a head start, as the older people were quicker. In addition, he was very quick to call set and then retract it, so we had to not deduct for that for a while. All in all a great game, though. I would recommend this for bright 9 year olds and up.

Set is about pattern-making, but the patterns touch 4 different categories: shape, color, number and shade. My 7 year-old learned the rules in a few minutes, and we were quickly playing. It's an enjoyable, addictive game, but also requiring concentration and focus to succeed. I highly recommend for the game-oriented family with kids 6+.

This is really such an awesome game. It is great for teaching thinking "outside the box" and looking for patterns. Love it!

Friends introduced us to this game several years ago and we've been hooked. Since then, we've had kids. Four things:
1. It is great as a competitive game with great suspense as everyone stares intently at the cards laid out.
2. We've also played cooperatively and we don't keep score.
3. Our toddler makes up matches of two and tells us what he's matching i.e. shape, color, number etc.
4. It helps sharpen those categorization/matching brain cells. Each picture can be broken into four variables, i. the number of shapes ii. the shape itself, iii. the color of the shape iv. and the fill type. Each variable can be one of three variations i.e. three colors, three shapes etc. A set is made when each variable in a set of three cards is either all the same or all different.
We have bought this game for numerous friends and family. Makes a great small birthday gift, stocking stuffer, thank you gift etc.
We're also hooked on Quiddler - a kind of a cross between Scrabble and Rumy.
