My 5-year-old and 8-year-old love this game. I took it to a church function one day and later the kids there begged me to bring it back again! It says ages 6-9, but I think the real age range is much broader. I bought an extra to keep on hand for a last-minute birthday gift! Buy the "lunchbox" version, though, because it is hard to get the cards back into that little paper box for storage.
