This
beautiful and innovative suite of memory improvement games provides
long-term play value and challenge for the whole family. I
especially liked the 8 games that focus on and strengthen visualization
and visual memory, including the ability to visualize things from other
perspectives. The 4 challenging verbal games strengthen the
ability to categorize and retrieve verbal information and would be most
applicable for highly verbal children. |
