Movers - Educational Board Game for Improving Categorization, Vocabulary, and Receptive and Expressive Language Skills

I bought this for my 3 year old to play with her siblings. It's hard to find games the other kids are willing to play with her and this seemed to be simple enough for her, yet engaging enough for the 9 and 10 year old. It was!First, they both had fun punching out the square "items". (I recommend storing them in a ziploc bag so they don't get lost.) The board was larger than I was expecting. My kids actually played! Together! Naming items and sorting by their use/location in the house.I liked that there were different play options, to make the game more challenging for my older kids if they wanted to play it with friends, and not with my 3 year old!My background in speech and language is compelling me to add that this is a great game for developing speech and language. There are so many ways this can be used therapeutically, both to encourage articulation and for categorization and other language/thinking skills.The price was not cheap, but worth it for a game that is well-made and seems sturdy enough to last even in my crazy house, where games tend to get wrecked pretty fast. High hopes for this one. The cardboard is thick, the pieces are sturdy. I think my kids will get to enjoy this game many, many times.

My kids had a great time playing with this game. My eight year old played it with her friend and my six and four year old sons. I purchased it for therapy because young students who need to work on association by place, don't always take to my structured therapy materials. A game with pictures is so perfect! Really nicely done!!

We love Kibbit Movers! It can be played both verbally and non-verbally, and requires no reading. Unlike a luck game like Snakes and Ladders, KM requires logic, which keeps the kids involved. They get into animated discussions about which cards go into which rooms. We keep playing until everyone has won or until all the cards are used up.

I use this as a motivating activity for categorization- labeling objects, discussing their function/purpose and then grouping it according to which room in the house it belongs. Love it, great concept, tons of fun- lots of different items too! Good quality, real life pictures too! Only negative is the size of the pieces, they're so tiny! I understand that its because they have to fit on the board, and the board is as large as it can really be practically speaking- so I get it, just in general I prefer using larger pictures for the students I work with so they don't waste energy or brain power trying to decipher the picture.

I bought this game with my 4.5 yr old son in mind. His language and expression skills are taking some time to develop, and I figured no harm done to try a game that’s supposed to help with categorization and visualization. I’m amazed at how this game is like a bunch of speech therapy sessions in a box! I’m playing this at home with him (my 7 and 8 yr olds are getting involved too!) and I feel like I can see his neural pathways developing! Best part is, he is having a blast! I’d buy this game again in a heartbeat! Compared to even one private speech therapy session, it’s a bargain;)

This is a terrific resource! The children love it and are very engaged when playing! I find that I can use it to target a large variety of receptive and expressive goals.Thank you very much!

The product is great for my son with special needs to be able to categorize things! He knows what goes in each room and we work on his speech by having him think of what it’s called or copying my modeling the word for him. It’s great!!

This game was easy to set up and was also very easy for my 5 year old to understand and start playing quickly. This game is very simple and straightforward with the rules. On your turn, you roll the dice, flip over that many tiles, and put them in the room where you would find them. When you draw a blank tile, you get to come up with any item you want and then place it in the room where you would find it. There is no reading involved in the actual gameplay so kids only need to be able to see and identify pictures and then think about what room it belongs in. Because of this, it creates a great opportunity for kids to think, identify, and categorize. It is also a great tool for developing other skills such as vocabulary.Overall, this game is adorable, good quality, and a great educational skills game for younger kids and families in general. I would recommend it!
