Rummy Roots: English Vocabulary Building Game Ages 8 to Adult 4.8 5 5 5

My kids love this! It's a great game that helps them learn the roots of common words; it has really helped their vocabulary and their appreciation for other languages. September 29, 2010

My 17 and 15 year old love to play this game. The game is fun (like Rummy) and they learn while playing. October 27, 2009

This game is so much fun! There are four different levels of play, with each being more challenging. The first level is not hard to play. From what we read, the other levels should not be any more difficult to learn. It is helping both my son & myself understand our words more fully. Since it is such a fast paced game, we have not had any problems adding it to our home school routine. Thank you for such a great product that I am happy to recommend to everyone! December 12, 2007

My 9 & 15 year old love to play cards & loved this game. I love that you can break the deck down & add cards as the first level is mastered. This caused us a problem as my 9 year old took it to her friends house, who loved it at 7 years, but those few cards got lost. Now I will have to rebuy the product! September 7, 2002
