"where" card and draw the scene. Example: Prince Charles
ballet dancing in Egypt. What an interesting twist on a popular
game!

colorful hairstyles.

Judging Criteria
Editors review
game submissions, weeding out products that are unsafe, unsound or
obviously unworthy. Promising products are then kid tested by families
nationwide. Finally, these results are considered by the experts as
part of the overall evaluation of the product. Unlike publications
that rely exclusively on the judgment of kid-testers, these reviews
take kid-tester's response to a product as one of the many factors to
be considered, along with educational and play value, safety, age
appropriateness, and other factors.
