Description
This cheerful kids' memory game brings together 24 round card pieces, each printed with a classic car or another vehicle on one face and a mint green hexagon pattern on the other. The vehicles are drawn in a bright retro style on coloured grounds: a red double-decker bus on yellow, a tractor on blue, a motorbike on green, a fire engine, a tanker lorry and a run of classic saloons and sports cars in pink, red, green and purple. Every picture appears on two pieces, so the aim is to find each pair. Each piece is 6cm across and 0.2cm thick, and the whole game weighs 0.11KG.
We like it for a quiet afternoon at the kitchen table or a rainy weekend indoors, and it suits children who love cars, buses and tractors. Play is simple: lay every piece face down, take turns to turn two over, and keep any matching pair you find. It is a fun way to help improve children's cognitive development, because remembering where the red bus or the motorbike was hiding takes concentration. Grown-ups can join in too, and they rarely win as easily as they expect. With small, flat pieces and a compact box, it packs neatly for holidays and trips away.
The pieces are made from card and the game is plastic-free, which we think is a welcome choice for a toy. Everything lives in a pale blue box printed with the Road Trip name, a red tanker lorry and a classic car, so the set goes back in one place after play. Card is happiest kept dry, so wipe the pieces with a soft dry cloth, and store the box away from damp. Tied with a ribbon, the little box makes a tidy, thoughtful gift for a young car fan, and it is handy to keep in the car for a stop at a café.
