Editorial Review:
The Dino Math Tracks game (winner of several prestigious awards, including an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal) is a race around the rainbow with a pack of pintsize, prehistoric pals. An unusual spin on a typical roll-the-dice-and-move game, it spotlights the mathematical concept of place value and gives kids reinforcement in what makes our base-10 number system tick. Each player is allotted one dinosaur for each of the four tracks (the tracks are labeled 1s, 10s, 100s, and 1000s). To play, a player rolls four dice to create a 4-digit number and then moves his or her prehistoric posse to the appropriate 1s, 10s, 100s, and 1000s places. Problem-solving strategies are honed as players scurry to get all four miniature mammoths or tiny triceratops into the dino haven, ahead of the other players' thundering herds. But look out! In the race to dino utopia, it's easy to get bumped by a baby brachiosaurus!
The Dino Math Tracks game provides multiple levels of play for a variety of ages. At the simplest level (perfect for a first-grader who knows Arabic numerals and one-to-one correspondence), kids use only the place track for the 1s. Later, cards with simple problems are introduced ("Stuck in a tar pit! Move your 10s dino back two spaces!"). At the most advanced level, players might encounter a question like this: "Your 10s dinosaur forgot its pants, so it went back 15 to get them. Then it hurried forward 25. How far did it get? Move that many." Young players will find the 2-inch, spunky vinyl dinosaur playing pieces irresistible. The game offers plenty of opportunities for friendly competition and brain bending--not to mention lots of nonthreatening practice at addition and subtraction. --Julie Ubben

I got this board game as a Christmas gift for my 5-year old son. I had been having a hard time getting him to recognize any numbers outside of double-digits but this game had him reading numbers in the thousands in no time.
As others have mentioned, the board can get crowded with more than two players however.
We're moving our way into the more advanced versions of the game and this simple $20 board game has turned into one of his favorite Christmas gifts.

This game has great potential; the version we got is backwards which is confusing to my kids. For example, the directions say yellow represents thousands, blue hundreds, green tens etc but it's obviously opposite, so a serious flaw in the actual production of the game. We just changed it as we played but it's a drag. My son (7) loves it though.

I got this for my 7 year old last year for Christmas. He loved it, we played quite a bit. It isn't a very complicated game and I'm not sure how much he learned from it, but it is fun to play. Easy to grow out of though.

I purchased this for my daughter to help her with place value. She loves the dinos, but when we play with the action number cards there seems to be a lot of mistakes. For example, the yellow dino starts out in the 1's positions, but the cards and the directions both have the yellow dino in the 1000's position. It is confussing for her since for example, she is looking to move the yellow dino back 3 thousands with an action number card and it is actually in the ones position. I've tried calling ...

This is fun for my 8 year old. Good concept and she is learning without even knowing she is doing math. An overall winner. Different levels allow for advancement extending the amount of time this game is useful for leaning. Good investement.
Board and dinos are durable and good quality.
Board footprints are close together and get crowded. Sometimes it is confusing to know what line to follow, expecially when there is a showdown.
Card stock thin but not unlike ... Read More
