This game, for two to four young players, combines elements of chance with facts of arithmetic. The result is a fun and absorbing game that reinforces multiplication-table knowledge (from 1 to 10) as players try to connect their path of markers across the board. The game consists of a colorful game board (with bright green iguanas framing the multiplication grid), a multiplication-table spinner, and 100 game markers (25 of each color). The spinner consists of three layers. The bottom two layers match two factors for multiplication; the top layer selects from among the factors matched (and also allows the player to check the answer before placing his marker). Each player spins twice to receive a multiplication problem, and then marks the game-board grid with his or her transparent marker after saying the problem aloud and trying to solve it. The game comes with complete instructions. --Ava Natov
