There’s something that draws kids to all things gross and disgusting. No one can really explain why things that would turn a normal adult’s stomach attract the elementary school set. If your kids can’t get enough of gross stuff, then Ick: The Game from Chronicle Books might just be for them. In this card game, monsters battle it out and whoever collects the most gross things for their monster wins.
Our testing mom tried the game out with her 11-year-old and while he wasn’t a fan, she said that it was an original game that she would recommend to other parents. Sounds like her son isn’t one of those kids who enjoys the gross and disgusting, so keep that in mind when deciding whether to purchase the game for your family.
Ick: The Game is recommended for ages 6 and up and retails for $15.95. For more information, including illustrations of all the monsters, visit www.chroniclekids.com.
