Description
This matching game is deceptively simple, so it’s perfect for all ages from young kids to adults. Don’t be surprised if your child regularly beats you to a match in this game! Plus, you can finish a game in as little as 10 minutes, so it’s a quick way to connect with your child at the end of a busy day.
And the best part? It’s small and portable. You can throw it in your purse or your car for when you’re heading somewhere your child will have to wait a bit, like the doctor’s office or to eat out at a restaurant.
The small tin holding the cards also makes this game a great fit as a stocking stuffer for kids.
Note: The manufacturer says this the Classic edition is for ages 7 and up, but according to several other families (including mine!) most 5-year-olds are ready for this game. For the Jr Animals edition, most 3-year-olds can play and enjoy the game.

Simple, no fuss set up to play and easy to follow instructions make Spot It! one of my top go to’s for family entertainment and connection. I love that the whole family can play – kids as young as preschool and up! I especially love its portability. I throw it in my purse and go, and we can play it anywhere!

We’ve had Spot-It for quite a few years and enjoy playing as a family. It’s a fast-paced matching game that is super easy to learn and allows many variations of rules and game play (something our family likes). It’s portable and simple so easy to take along in the car for unexpected waits for siblings, appointments, etc.
Maryann –
Fun, excellent visual discrimination practice, and no set up required! Even my 2 year old can feel included in game night now – thank you for a great product!
Bri Johnson –
My family loves Spot It! We have several different versions and all are extremely fun. The great part is it only takes a few minutes to play. So even if you only have 5 minutes to spare you have enough time to play Spot It. We take it camping and it easily fits into my purse. Fun, fun, fun!

“Spot It” is a fun game for the whole family. We have children ages 5-14 and with their age range, it is a challenge to find a game that everyone is willing to play. This one is even fun for adults. I also like that there is more than one way to play to change things up a bit. Highly recommend!
Laura –
Super easy to play/learn, great for all ages (especially if you’re willing to adjust your pace for younger players), and actually fun and challenging for adults, too. My favorite part is how portable it is–no pieces to lose, and I can throw it in my purse so we can play anywhere. Great game!
Rebecca –
Spot It (any addition) has been a family favorite for awhile. We started when my 15yo was little and we all still play it! It travels well and can be played at a restaurant or even in the car. The pictures are fun and the concept keeps it entertaining for all ages! Definitely from age 2, 3 or 4-104!
Valorie –
Our whole family loves this game! It doesn’t require reading and is simple enough for a 3-year-old to play (maybe even younger, depending on the kid) all the way up to adults. As an adult you won’t be bored out of your mind. It is fast paced and one round can be done in a few minutes so you’re not stuck playing it all day. It is small and portable so you can take it anywhere and play when you’re waiting in the car, at a restaurant, or the airport, etc. You get the idea. It is tons of fun!

We have Spot It Jr and it’s my absolute favorite game of everything we own! Our 4yo can win without us letting her, and it’s super quick. We have a second tin I leave in our diaper bag so we can play at restaurants while we’re waiting for our food.

This game is a hit with the family! My daughter is 3 and she is really good at this game so it is fun to play with all ages 3+. I would highly recommend.
Isabel –
Best game for traveling, as it’s small enough but without small pieces. Small and big kids can play and have fun. I like it because it’s challenging even for adults, and very easy to pack away. Screen free fun!
Deanna Berrios –
We love the game Spot It because it is fun for my 3 year old, my 9 year old and for my husband and me. It’s so simple, anyone can play. I also love the variations available to make this game more interesting. We can’t stop play sometimes!
Laura Smith –
Amazing for all ages and totally adaptable if you need to help younger kids find matches!!! I LOVE the many different ways to play and the many different versions that are now available. You can play with lots of people of all different ages. It is also a game that can be played by people of all nationalities because there is no reading involved, just recognition of pictures. We have a Chinese aunt that really enjoys it. We love Spot It!!!!
Jenifer –
Be the fastest to spot the only matching picture between two cards. Perfect for kids and adults who are good at noticing details. Adaptable to play with younger kids if you’re willing to give them a little longer to find the match. Make it exciting for solo play by timing how long it takes to go through the deck. Fun and playable even if you lose a few cards.
Beth Maguire –
this game is the best! we own multiple versions. it’s a great distraction while waiting in a restaurant, and it’s perfect for travel – just pop it in your bag!
Sarah Johnson –
This game is really fun, convenient (great for travel), easy to learn and great for all ages!

This game is great for all ages. My 4 and 6 year old can play it together on their own, while I’m making dinner. It’s fast paced so it keeps the kids attention.
