 Too Babyish May 29, 2008

My entire family loves the Skippyjon Jones books, but the Treasure Hunt was very disappointing. It was too babyish, even for my seven year old, and we felt cheated that we didn't get a real story. The book should be billed as an activity book for very young children.
wow- sorely disappointed May 10, 2008

My girls LOVE the skippyjon books, so much so that they wrote in their calendars when this book was to be released! Unfortunately they were as disappointed as I am. To keep the game "popped up" the book needs to be super flat. And the story line, well, it just isn't there. Each page reflects various older skippyjon stories, like skippyjon visits a shack at the edge of the world or visits king tuts sarcophagus. Sure, kids like repetition, but this is just a comment on older stories, not really any story at all. I wouldn't dare even call this a "book" there is no story line, and even if there was, it would be interrupted at each page turn since the children are looking for matching tiles (think thick cardboard with a plastic skewer through it). some tiles are easy to turn, others are a bit "sticky" almost, being too tight on the plastic post. I'm not impressed with this "book" at all.
 Not up to Skippyjon Standards May 5, 2008

My children (6, 4, 1) were disappointed with this game because they expected a book and more of the (usually great) Skippyjon dialog. This is still entertaining for the youngest kids to use in the car, but it really is not much fun to read or "play" and I expect it will hit the giveaway box before long. The kids do love that they can recognize aspects from various Skippyjon adventures, but in the long run this isn't worth it.
