Reviews

We absolutely love adding in games (of any kind) to our homeschool studies. Board games, card games, dice games, printable games, we love them all. This has been a perfect addition to our game collection and highly recommend this printable to anyone who enjoys learning through play. ~Heather C.

My boys and I have had so much fun with this game!!!! I cannot count how many times we have played it, but no one gets any answers wrong anymore. They even invented the rule that you have to play it forward and back again before you win.. thank you! ~Lori C. on the President’s Game

This was a hit with my students! ~Nancy D. on the Civil War Game
