Comments from other Mumsnetters: There are so many varieties of Top Trumps now, they're great for teaching kids to read large numbers. "My son spends hours setting his cards out in order of age, number of goals scored, number of caps etc. (he has football top trumps). For the price, they've been a really good buy." "I was so pleased when my kids got into Top Trumps because they were a real favourite with me as a child. It's enabled me to revisit my youth and get excited about the CC and speed of sports cars once again!"

"DS (four) has Power Rangers and Postman Pat Top Trumps,…"

DS (four) has Power Rangers and Postman Pat Top Trumps, as well as a dinosaur-themed, unbranded version of the same game. They have been *superb* on several counts.
They have reinforced the phonics learning DS has been doing at school/home, and introduced him to some longer, "tricky" words which he has been unphased by. His number recognition and ordering (9 is a higher score than 7, for example) has strengthened, as well as his understanding that a huge number in one category can in fact be a low score, and a relatively small score in another category is high: 65 million years ago is a low score for when a dinosaur lived, while 30m long is HUGE! And - after a wobbly start! - he is getting more comfortable with the idea that sometimes he'll win, and sometimes he'll lose.
Enormously educational but, on the surface, it's all just plain fun!
We have taken Top Trumps with us when going to restaurants, on train trips or to visit friends, and they keep DS amused for ages.
Highly recommended.Read moreLess"Brilliant, fun, educational, helps with reading large numbers, and useful…"

Top Trumps reign supreme in our house! We bought the Dog set a year ago and our 5 year old can't get enough of playing. They have helped with his reading and concentration so much that we have also bought the Roald Dahl set which he loves almost as much. Very inexpensive and yet provides hours of fun and amusement. Portable too - we take them to restaurants to keep him amused whilst we're waiting for our food

An excellent way to encourage reading in otherwise reluctant readers. Also helps with number recognition. Good value for money.
