Galt Toys, Picture Lotto, Classic Picture Lotto Game for Children, Ages 4 Years Plus

Great game for youngsters..to promote social skills such as turn-taking, vocabulary, recognition, matching skills. It can also be played as a memory game for older children.

This is a classic game for young children features nicely coloured cards of different things / people etc and a board to match them to. The standard way to play the game is each player takes a board, and then they take in turns to pick cards... the winner is the one who matches all the pictures on the board first.It's also fun for children on their own where they can try to match all the cards to all the boards.Good quality, nice for young kids.

Great little game. Happy with it.

My children played this for hours years ago when they were children, so much so that I now still buy it for young children even today. Simple format, sturdy card. Keeps young children entertained

At the time of review, the price is £7.99.Classic picture matching game designed for children aged 4 years and up. The game comes with four double-sided boards featuring colorful illustrations of animals, objects, and characters that children will easily recognize and enjoy.The objective of the game is simple: players take turns picking up picture cards and matching them to the pictures on their board until they complete a row. The first player to complete a row wins the game. This simple gameplay is easy for young children to understand and helps to develop their memory, concentration, and social skills as they learn to take turns and cooperate with others.The quality of the game is excellent, with thick and durable cards and boards that can withstand repeated play. The illustrations are bright, engaging, and well-drawn, making them easy for children to recognize and match. The game is also compact and lightweight, making it easy to transport and store when not in use.

I don’t know about anyone else but I was a bit confused reading the description on how to play this - but it’s simple: it’s picture bingo. You get 6 picture boards (3x3 grid) and a stack of cards to draw from. If you have the picture on your board, you take the card and place it on your board. The first player to collect all 9 cards, wins.So it’s straightforward, no skill required really but lovely for young children as it's a very visual game that requires the matching up of pictures: it’s interactive and little ones seem to like the anticipation aspect and get quite excited seeing cards on their board come up. Extra fun if you can have a person specifically assigned to calling out the cards (just like real bingo) but it’s not essential.My only criticism is that when the cards have been placed on the board, it’s actually a little difficult to differentiate between collected pictures and missing cards - something on the cards like a coloured border, a stripe across the picture would have helped greatly... **My Solution** : I’ve stuck down a small gold star sticker to the corner of every card (on the picture side) to help with this.Nice quality game otherwise; brightly coloured illustrations on chunky, durable cardboard (a lot like jigsaw pieces). Lots of fun for young children, very easy to play and ideal for family time!

Fantastic robust Galt quality game of Lotto. It is so nice to see this old friend again. In the 1970's I used to play this Galt set endlessly with my little brother and then in the 1990's I got given a set that a local primary school were throwing out and that I played endless games of with children at the local playgroup. Now, this re released set with he iconic graphics and colorway from the 1970's is back and I can play it with my grandchildren!! You get six really sturdy thick cardboard template boards and so can play with up to 6 children in a group. Then there are hoardes of square cards that match to pictures on the cards. You very simply spread out, face down, a child picks one and sees if it matches or you can use them to turn over from a deck. Great for looking and searching, matching skills for young children and much simpler than the remember, remember Galt game which is also great but more challenging. The graphics are very cute, smiley suns, happy clocks, lots of animals and household items all held in a sturdy, heavy acrd box that will last. Great Galt quality, for home, playgroup, nursery, infant and primary school use. Educational and fun.

Good quality game that is simple in its design but a great introductory game for young children. The matching element is good for developing a range of skills and promoting learning, but the vibrant colours are also very appealing.
