Check Out! Quick Scanning Grocery Game
$9.99
I'm always looking for games to play with my nieces, so I picked this up.

You start off with a "hub" of six groceries, in each of six different colors. (There's a total of EIGHT colors and SEVEN grocery types, but only six of each on the hub). You place a card from the deck in each hub slot - aisle - making sure that no aisle has two matching cards. They can match in either color or grocery type.

And then the game starts, cards are turned over and players compete to be the first one to find an aisle to put each card in where it doesn't match anything. It's a pretty fast game, and little kids can play on about the same level as grown-ups. It really builds visual discrimination skills and logical thinking.

One problem: The colors aren't very consistent or distinct. Often, we think a card is gray when it's blue, or blue when it's green, or orange when it's red. We're going to end up relabelling them ourselves :(
