Disney DVD Bingo

I bought this past game as an afterthought for my 3 1/2 year old son for Christmas. Quickly it became a family favorite. This game is entertaining as well as educational.
There are 3 game settings to choose from, standard bingo, blackout (cover the whole board)and pattern (specific pattern needs to be completed). We like to play the blackout board overall. On each game a picture of a Disney character is displayed with a specific colored background that corresponds with the board and a bingo letter/number in the corner. With all the choices for recognition (character, color, number or letter) it will be difficult to frustrate your child. My son knew the colors and characters and because of this could play his own card by himself. He is now learning the higher end numbers because he relates them to the characters.
A bonus is he has been spending time playing this game by himself since the numbers are called every 15 seconds and he doesn't have to do anything but wait and watch. I can hear him calling out the letters and characters as they pop up on the screen! Too cute!
Another really nice feature is the "WILD" screen. Instead of a character popping up on the screen, this comes up you get to sit back and watch a clip from a random Disney cartoon. Afterwards, the caller directs you to a specific color but you get to pick which space to cover.
Speaking of the bingo caller, this emcee has a pleasant voice and has cute descriptions for each character called.
When all the letters have been called and someone should have won by this point, the game automatically takes you to a review screen to make sure you didn't miss a character. If you have bingo, you go to the top of the screen and click on the word "BINGO" and it shoots a big Congratulations with a bunch of fanfare across the screen. It is so cute and makes you feel good for playing. We continue until everyone gets bingo then click on the "Bingo" word and we all celebrate together. What a family fun game!!!
I loved it so much, that I went back to the stope and bought a bunch for the future birthday parties that we have coming up. It was under $10 at our local Kohl's store! This game is a keeper!

My kids have LOTS of games, and this isn't one they pull from the pile to play very often. It's okay.

My daughter recv'd this as a birthday gift and loved it; therefore, I have given this for a birthday gift repeatedly, and I get GREAT reviews from the parents and kids alike. It's very fun, but I recommend adult supervision so the younger kids understand the object of the game.

This game is just great for all ages. We have 1 son who just turned 8, and Friday's are usually Family game night. We have so much fun with this and never get bored. My son even plays it when some of his friends come over for playdates. We also have dvd pictionary, dvd madagascar, and the candyland DVD (he's growing out of that). However, we love these games and it really brings your family together. I would definetely recommend this. It is also a great rainy day game. FUN!

I bought this game for my son's fourth birthday. He's really getting into board games and is also a big Disney buff, so I thought he would like it.

Turns out, he loves it. We play almost every day. The game offers many different methods of matching: by picture, color, letter, and number, so children of any and all ages can play together and not have to worry about being at different comprehension levels. At four, my son matches the color and picture, but it's also a great tool to review numbers and (limited, true) letters.

I suppose the only con would be that there might not be enough chips included. It's fine when it's just my son and I, but if we were playing the blackout version (fill up the entire card) with more people, we would probably run out of chips. But that's no big deal; you can use pretty much anything as extra chips.

Any game that we can play as a family and has even a little educational value is tops in my book.
