Pictureka For Children
By Joan Kickosawa
An important skill all children need to learn is the ability
to spot items or pictures hidden within a background. You may
not think this is important but in reality it is. Adults use this
skill daily.
It may be finding their car keys or it may be finding a set of
numbers within a graph. Children begin learning this skill through
the game of hide-n-seek. You can take it a step farther by giving
them the board game Pictureka. They get to compete with each other
to find the hidden objects and have a blast while doing so.
Game For Children 8 And Up
The game is relatively simple and has to be played with a minimum
of two players. Each player is given mission cards and then they
have to successfully complete each mission on the card.
It is a very visual game that helps children, and even adults,
sharpen their visual acuity. The ages for this game are for 6
and up but you may find that 6 year olds are not able to play
the game as well. Most users and even reviewers recommend that
the children be 8 and up.
Small Pieces May Be A Choking Hazard For Children
If you want a game that the entire family can play that also
helps enhance visual acuity, then you need to take a look at Pictureka.
You and your child will have hours of fun searching through the
pictures while you race against each other to collect the most
points and cards to win. There is one thing you do need to keep
in mind though. There are small pieces that could present a choking
hazard for young children.
Improve Visual Skills
So what can this board game do for your child? The very first
thing it can teach is learning to take turns and playing fairly.
That is common with all board games. The real educational tool
used is sharpening visual skills to find the images assigned.
This is important because it helps develop a child’s eyesight
as well as help them use their minds creatively. The fact that
you and other adults can play is definitely something that is
a bonus.
Sharpen Finding And Reading Skills
How many games can be used by both adults and children? The answer
is not many, because most people have phased board games out of
their lives in favor of electronic games. Pictureka is a great
board game to own and is suitable to a wide age range.
You can have just as much fun as your child as you compete against
each other. They get to sharpen their finding skills as well as
their reading skills and you get to have fun watching them.
