Monster Sock Factory Variations (Monster Sock Factory)

My 9- and 6- year olds both enjoyed this game, and it gave them a different way of understanding multiplication.

Got this for my 4th grader who doesn't enjoy timed multiplication drills. The game comes with 4 different gameplay versions and she wanted to try all of them. She has asked to play before bed for the last 4 nights in a row. I am enjoying playing it with her too. The box is the factory floor, so set-up is quite easy for the first two game versions (just open the box). I would recommend for anyone looking for a fun way to strengthen multiplication skills.

Great concept but could use a few tweaks. My 6yr LOVES this game. The instructions are a bit vague but it’s easy enough to create your own rules. The box has no placeholders for the tiles so setup can be time consuming. We like to play the very last game in the manual and it consist of 10cards per number ... so trying to fish out #s 1-9 10x each for two players ... is a bit of a headache.

This game is really cute and clever. My daughter is only in kindergarten, but she loves her addition/subtraction game. We got this one to just start exposing her to the concepts. She had figured out to count the legs on the shadows of the creatures in order to see what monster to grab. She counts all the legs all together, to say 21 for example, and then we reinforce that 7 monsters times 3 legs each gives 21 socks. It's a pretty fun way to learn. She doesn't get the more complex game play aspects of it, but she's having fun with the math part.

I just didn't love this, and am mad about the amount I spent on it. It had promising reviews, as I was hoping to engage my kiddos for some family fun and math practice. But these just did not seem fun. We did the pets game first. It was easy enough for my 3rd and 5th grader to pull out and tackle on their own. They played the whole way through with little excitement, and have never asked to play again. Both games have SEVERAL itty bitty pieces and lots of steps to make game play possible which in turn just makes it not enjoyable for us. They are cute and pretty well made. Some definitely put some thought into it. Maybe it works for some, but definitely was not our jam.

These durable little game pieces are easy to understand and great for learning lots of concepts. Multiplication is only the beginning. We really love the cute little designs on each card, and the ability to grab each card is so easy because they are nice and thick and easy to hold.

We love our Logic Roots games! We already had a few in our game stash before buying this pair, and they've been some of our daughter's favorite games. As a homeschooling mom it's important that there be fun components to our school days. When we play these games she doesn't see them as "school work" but as game time, which is a big win! I also like that they aren't games that take an extended amount of time to complete. Sitting with a 6 year old for more than 30 minutes isn't always in the cards. We would love to see additional games from Logic Roots that go beyond the basics of early elementary. These games would make great gifts for any homeschooling family!

Really loving this game. The cards are hard so they won’t get ruined easily and the pictures are really cute. It has definitely helped my 9 year old with her multiplication facts and skip counting. I’ve noticed just over the 4 games that we have played she has started to memorize more. The hint pictures make it easy enough that my 7 year old can play with us as well. I also really like that there are multiple levels of play so that when it starts getting too easy we can bump up the game for added difficulty.
