I grew up with Geosafari 25 years ago. It was so enjoyable and challenging. I learned alot. When my son turned 5 I thought it was time to get him one. It is perfect for our household. We do not have Television but rather watch occasional Netflix. I do not have video games or alot of electronic gadgets. Because of that, this older technology is not competing with current things. My kids 4 and 6 now, both enjoy doing the cards. Some are easy and others require that your child already know how to read - which for my 6 year old is perfect. This is a fantastic thing to have for travelling as well as single play. It may not be the right thing for you if your child is used to computer programmed games, etc.
