This game has added excitement, tactical thinking and teamwork into my tutoring sessions. 9 out of 10 sessions will include playing Animal Match, at the students request of course! They always ask to play it and it has definitely become the new favourite game at the classroom. We are all very excited to see what the next pack has in store, thank you Spark Cards!
These are amazing cards. 2 of my boys 5 & 3 cant get enough of them. It’s the perfect amount of fun and learning. Since having the cards we have sat down as a family every night. A must buy.
Really enjoyed playing this with our 5 year old. She also loves learning the facts about each animal.
Bought this game for my 2 little boys who are aged 5 and 7 and they have asked to play it every night for the past 2 weeks!
Received these really quickly and played with them the same day! My granddaughter loves the game!
Brilliant game - we are loving playing it. Everything from the size and feel of the cards to the photos and facts has been thought of with kids in mind. Looking forward to taking on our travels
The cards are very well designed and produced - it has the feel and look of a quality product. My friend's 6-year old went through all the cards reading the facts, and was very animated and engaged while she did it. I haven't heard yet whether her frazzled parents have had the time to sit down and go through how to play the game with her. Overall, I think this is a great idea and is well executed. I do have some constructive (I hope) comments for future games. 1) The cards are quite big, which is great for going through and reading, but difficult for small hands to hold while you play the game. I struggled to hold 5 cards in one hand while I 'played' the game before giving it to my little friend. 2) I think it would be useful if the additional cards (wild cards, etc.) were encased in a separate little pack or similar. When my friend's daughter opened the pack, she immediately came across the wild cards and it wasn't the time or place to explain what they are. It would be better if children could access the 'fact' cards before muddling the picture with the 'game' cards.
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a detailed review — we really appreciate it!
We’re really glad to hear your friend’s daughter enjoyed the cards and was engaged with the facts — that’s exactly what we designed them for 😊
In terms of the card size, we’ve actually found through testing that the larger format works really well for readability and engagement, especially for younger children. The mix of different card types is also intentional, as it helps introduce the game elements alongside the learning aspect.
That said, we really appreciate you sharing your experience — it’s always helpful to hear how different people interact with the product.
Thanks again for your support!
Came across sparkcards and thought my nieces and nephews would love these! Can honestly say they didn’t disappoint and they can’t stop playing with them! Such a great idea for educational learning aswell as fun!
Such a fun game and really easy to learn.
The kids were engaged straight away and loved the animal facts.
It’s great to find something that’s educational but still feels like proper play. We’ve already played it loads!!!
