Go Fish
Do you remember asking the following question? Do you have any 5’s?” Well, that was yesterday's game. Today, Go Fish US History is an opportunity for kids to collect not four simple cards but rather categories like presidents, scientists, artists, etc. In fact, there are 13 categories, and each has four subjects. Each subject has four interesting facts. Like the original Go Fish, the objective is to complete as many categories as possible – earning a point for each category.
The player with the most points wins the game. However, we've added two additional versions of the classic game. Games 2 and 3 test your knowledge about each subject. Each player reads a clue and only earns a point when they guess the correct subject. A clue, for example, would be… “Who wrote the Constitution? Answer… James Madison, and earn a point. Kids can't help but learn!
U.S. History
Go Fish
This version has the same format as Go Fish US History. Categories include poisonous plants, the respiratory system, natural energy, the fastest animals, the Universe, etc. Again, there are 13 categories. Collect all 4 of a particular category and earn a point. Once again, the most points win. Games 2 and 3 rely on learning facts about each subject within that category.
One player reads a clue, and other players have an opportunity to identify the subject. Guess correctly and earn a point. Example: Clue… What is the planet closest to the sun? Answer… Mercury. That player receives the colorful Mercury card and earns a point. The most points win!

The person that collects the most groups of 4, wins! In Game 2, several of the Dinos are worth extra points! Outsmart your competitor by strategically hunting for these apex predators and you are your way to becoming, The Lizard King!
