I got this book for my six year old son and he is having a wonderful time trying to find all the items from the riddles. This is one book he actually wants to read on his own. My husband and I went through it after he went to bed and there is just one thing in the whole book that we just can't find....the 8th H.....help?
As others have mentioned, the "Challenger" books compile photos from other I Spy books. I'd say the riddles in this one are a little more difficult than the riddles that accompany the pictures in the original books. The clues tend to be for smaller, more obscured, or otherwise more difficult-to-find items in the pictures, so they are a little more challenging. Therefore still worth getting, I think, even if you have some of the original books.We and our kids (Almost 4, and 1 1/2 years) love them, but one thing I'd say for small kids is that some of the pictures tend to be a little spooky (creepy clowns, skeletons, etc.). It seems to bother them less than I think it would, but if your kids are particularly sensitive...Overall, the I Spy books are excellent and highly recommended!
This was the #1 request on my wish list for my 2 year old son. Not only can he study the pages to find animals, trucks, and toys, I can keep occupied by the riddles. He cannot find the difficult objects, but enjoys the colors and looking for the more obvious things. All of these books are excellent. They increase concentration and problem solving. They are great for 2 years to 100 years.
We love the I Spy books, and this one is another hit. This book is another in the series and follows style as the previous books. If you enjoy the I Spy series, you are sure to enjoy this one.
The Eye Spy books are great. They have pictures of different objects, for example a store window, and a riddle. You have to find the objects listed in the riddle.Some of them are difficult and require some creative thinking. For example; it might say a nail and you have to remember there are nails in the wall and nails on a hand. Some you just have to have a good eye for detail. You might have to find three fish and one might be a real fish, one a button fish and one a cloud shaped like a fish.My son who is seven enjoys these and revels in finding all fo the objects. We like to do it as a family to see if we can find every object under a set time or a race to see who can find all the objects first. Sometimes we make up our own riddles for a page and then try to find the objects.Enjoy.
i think the i spy series should have more than 5 stars. it deserves 100 stars! i like them because of the photos and picture riddles, those are both cool. you should definitely try to collect these books because they're SO neat. keep 'em coming, marzollo & wick! and thanks for making such great books. p.s. these books are GREAT for road trips!
Any of these I Spy books are great for children of all ages. Keeps them very involved. These are special books that I pull out when the day is not going well and they really help to get the children to quiet down and spend time searching for the items listed.
Bought this for my friend's six-year-old son, and he squealed with delight when he opened it at Christmas. Cannot beat the "I Spy" collections in my opinion. Great photos and a good challenge and fun for even adults. Started out years ago with "I Spy Christmas", and it's still a favorite. Highly recommend this series to kids of all ages!
