What our experts think
Our testers loved the game play, competition, and learning about circuits as they played Snap 2 It. They learned to play in groups of 2 – 4, as well as in teams. They also used the solo play instructions to practice and hone their skills before playing again in a group. Combining the snap circuit pieces with the use of cards strategically to turn on their light first, along with the promotion to play offensive and defensively, fully engaged the children.
Paying attention to where other players placed their pieces and how to maximise their turn sustained their focus and elevated the fun factor. Playing Snap 2 It, actively encourages development across multiple areas. It hones fine motor skills, executive functioning, and logical thinking. Collaboration and competition with peers further fostered communication, team work, and socialisation skills.
