Learning Resources Slam Ships Sight Words Game - Ages 5+ Educational And Fun Games For Kids, Board Kindergarten

I was tossing up between this sight word game and the fly swat one… and I wish I’d chosen the other one. The pieces are so hard to get off the UFO that they bend or literally break in half. We played it once and i how have to glue 4 pieces back together. They should be made of plastic not cardboard :(

Bought this for my students. The game was fun at first, but as the word disks are made of layers of cardboard, a few of them fell apart during the first time using it.Every time we play, more disks get ruined when the students try to remove them from the UFO suction pads. The disks really should be made of plastic so that they can withstand kids playing normally with them. Disappointed.

Purchased this with the intention of helping my 5 yr old grandson learn his sight words. Received in a timely fashion and was impressed with packaging. Tried it for the first time two days ago. (grandson was really excited). To my extreme disappointed, the first time we tried to remove the spaceship sucker, the word disk pulled apart and was no longer usable. We tried another word disk just barely touching the disk & that one started to pull apart. My grandson was pretty upset as I had been telling him about this "great game" that we were going to play and we couldn't even get 5 mins of play from it. Really disappointed! I would hesitate to purchase any more unfamiliar games under these circumstances. This disabled, senior citizen just wasted $17.00 !

I bought this to work with my 6 year old that just finished kindergarten. I wanted something to keep practicing sight words over the summer. We just received it and have played it once so far. He really enjoyed it and we had fun playing together. I love it when he doesn't realize he's learning! It's a cute game and he liked the space ship "slammers". I like that the different levels of sight words are easily differentiated by color. However, I am worried about it's durability. As I said we have only played the game once so far and we are seeing signs of wear. As can be seen in the picture, some of the word discs are separating when the suction slammer is removed. My 6 year old isn't particularly strong, but the auctions cups do their job of sticking well. I'm concerned that after playing a few times too many of the pieces will be damaged and unplayable.

Five year old and three year old play with these at game night and with our after school education. I know some customers have had issues with the circles breaking, I haven't encountered this issue after months of well loved play with these.The dexterity and speed challenge of the game is fun for my children. The different colors that are associated with different grade levels make it easy to adapt the game to my children's needs and abilities. Thank you for a well thought product and game!
