Family of 3 - daughter is a bright 11 year old. Will she find "family" too babyish? Which version should we get?

Family edition... otherwise an 11 year old doesn't have a frame of reference for the Party Version.

We are a family of three here, and I would consider us to be a fairly intelligent family. That being said, there have been very few questions that we the parents knew the answers to. Our daughter is eight years old and really enjoys this game. For a teaser of the game, check out "Table Top" with Will Wheaton.

No. My kids love it. It about making a wager on the closest possible answer. You normally don't know the real answer.

Our whole family enjoys this game and all of my kids are over 18! (HS Senior and college grads)

I'm 19 and I play with my parents who are in their 40's and siblings around my age. These questions are not easy at all. I think I've only known a couple of the answers for sure. Also a lot of the questions are supposed to be surprising or quirky. Although I don't have the other versions of this game, I know that some of them involve poker chips and have a competitive play style. Wits & Wagers family is probably your best choice in my opinion. Don't let the word "family" fool you. The questions are not babyish at all :)

All of my grand kids 5-10 play the regular version and love it. Boys and girls. Individually and cooperatively. I will be buying some other versions, but not the Jr. They start with the easiest puzzles and work their way through them. What they learn in one helps with the next. Hope that helps!

I got the 11 which is great for 4 kids.... Bigger will work better for more than that!

Hi, perhaps below 5 would be good. For big kids, maybe good is good to try the Ultra version.

I bought this for my 3 year old and 6.5 year old loves it but she pretty much loves anything we play as a family (family time you know!). If I were buying for a 7 year old I would definitely get the Disney version of "Eye found It" instead. Same thing only a bit better. We have both.

My daughter has the three in one. It works really well for the under two age

This house is big, if she still wants to play she can. My kids are more into electronics these days than anything else, but my 11 years old daughter sometimes plays along her 6 years old sister with space to spare.

Absolutely. Nothing vulgar. Very family friendly, good for pretty much anyone who can read and up.

I bought this last week. My children are in grades 2 and 4. We have played several times as a family and had a last doing so. The reason I picked this version was not because it was "easier," but because from what I've read there are some words/phrases that are perhaps not appropriate for children. And since this was purchased for us to play with children, we bought the juniour version.

No. The family edition is 1/2" larger in both directions. How is it that all 4 other answers are ambiguougs guesses/ or just plain wrong?

we tried the using the v-tech.. it had several buttons and we had a hard time finding pic we took (my 32 year old sister was trying it!) ... FP camera seems to be a better choice for preschoolers who can't read... like my 2 kids so i got a girl and boy's version of it.

I am using 11, the old version, and I'm very happy with it. I use it daily, and the approximately $30 price tag makes this version an excellent value for the money. It has a couple of idiosyncracies ( I probably misspelled that....), but I would still recommend it. It has trouble with homonyms, and will capitalize and punctuate on its own sometimes, but for thirty bucks you can't beat it. Good luck!

I'd say if they are closer to 3 than 4 it would be okay. If they are closer to 4, I'd opt for a different model that is actually a clock that changes color when it's "wake-up" time. It should be clear enough for a 3 year old to understand though.

I think you can start as soon you feel they are old enough to appreciate it it! My daughter is 11 and still loves it , Although we just started tradition last year, this is a whole new thing for us.

Kids age 4 to 7 will probably enjoy it the most. Older than that, and they might think it too "babyish" for them.
