My daughter (3 at the time) received this as a Christmas present and it took her all of 10 minutes to memorize where the pieces belong thus ending the usefulness of the game. The game itself only comes with 12 puzzle pairs (24 total pieces). I would avoid this game entirely.

I guess I’m a little surprised after reading several of the other reviews- my children did not master this game after 10 minutes! I have 2 children who fall into the appropriate age range for this toy. My 5 year old was not very interested in this game although he’s played once or twice, but my 3 year old really enjoys it. I lay out the picture cards in columns, and then give him a stack of the word cards that have items to search for. He has completed this task several times. It would be even more challenging if I did not sort the cards and he had to hunt for both pieces. Some children at 3 years old can complete 100 piece puzzles- this game would probably be too easy for them. For my 3 year old this game is at a great challenge level- hard enough to be interesting, but not overwhelmingly frustrating either. The best feature is that the game is self-checking, if the piece fit together, it’s the right match, if they don’t the child has to keep looking!

I’m going to save this toy for my newborn daughter when she turns 18mos old, since my 3yo twin boys found this game MUCH too easy and got bored in less than five minutes. The quality of the cardboard is great, thick and sturdy, and comes in a great carry-along twin. Unfortunately, the game itself didn’t pose much of a challenge for the recommended age range.

My son is 2 and we got him this for a good indoor on a rainy day game, however, it only took him 2-3 times in playing it to have it memorized. There are not that many pieces in the box and it didn’t take long at all for him to get bored. I tried mixing it up and making up different games with it, but he lost interest the second day. Now it just sits there in the box. I recommend saving your money on this game and just purchasing “memory” or a simple deck of cards.

I really like all of the I Spy products. I like the beautiful photos, and I like to find the items in the books, too. Knowing that, we got this game off of an Amazon.com wish list for my daughter’s third bithday. She’s still playing with it at four years, but she needs my help to lay out the pieces and play it with her. I would recommend it, though. The puzzle pieces are easy to put together, and it is a well made toy.
