I just bought this game a few weeks ago for my son's 6th birthday...and we love it!This game comes with 72 colorful cards of sturdy cardboard base, a plastic tray, and instructions. For younger children, you don't *have* to use all 72 cards.
This is a great game to improve memory, even for adults. While some pictures are straightforward (Tickety Tock, Purple Kangaroo, Side Table Drawer, the blue pawprint, Mr. Salt, Mrs. Pepper, Cinnamon, etc.), there are some tricky cards. For example, you'll have a card with Blue gazing at a butterfly, as well as Blue gazing at a caterpillar. Then you'll have a card with Blue painting a spider, and another where Blue is painting the sun. Or Joe with a blue shirt, and Joe with an orange shirt.
I suprised at how much *I* get a kick out of it--and my son and husband enjoy it as well!
My son loves Blues Clues and Memory so I thought this would be the perfect choice.Unfortunately, I've found that some of the pictures are very similar to other ones in the deck, so my 4 year old son tries to match up pictures that don't exactly match.For example... There may be a cat sitting in the grass in a blue and white plaid shirt and in another picture it's the same cat in the grass but in a green and white plaid shirt.And these aren't vibrant colors that can't possibly be mistaken for each other.These colors are relatively muted.At first glance, I even had a bit of difficulty.As we played on I realized that I had accidentaly matched two tiles incorrectly.Now, I'm not the most intelligent person on the face of the earth, but I'm not stupid either and I feel that if an adult can make that mistake that it would probably be quite easy for a 4 or 5 year old to make that same mistake.

My 4 year old daugther looooves Blue's Clues, and this game has so many of the show's characters.I was amazed at her memory abilities!And also, I discovered she could count to 70 plus which are the number of pieces on this game!
