[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids only played by comparing point values and don't seem to play it for real. It was pretty harmless and was actually pretty useful for motivating my reluctant readers to learn how to read and to do chores to buy them. The cards are very popular at my kids' day camp and only come out during the summer at my house. [/quote]

Most kids younger do not get how to play as no one has taught them. They are completely harmless.  The cards are not just about collecting them.  It's a real game.  [/quote]

It's definitely worth learning the game. Like some PPs have said, it was a good shared experience for my DS and DH for a few years, mostly early ES years.  But, he's 12 now and still has his cards and he and DH recently got them out and got obsessed with playing again for a couple weeks.  DS taught me too so I could play with him when DH wasn't available.  There's definitely a good amount of thinking, strategy, and arithmetic involved. [/quote]
