Zingo is a fun educational game played like a bingo game but with a chip dispenser that you slide forward to reveal 2 sight words. Every player gets a two-sided Zingo card for two levels of competition. Although the game’s description says it has 72 tiles, there are actually 24 different words (three tiles per word). It’s a perfect game for your 5-year-old getting ready for kindergarten and learning how to read.

The format is easy and keeps the game compact and neat. Special needs teachers praise Zingo as a valuable educational toy. It is a handy language tool for children with speech problems such as apraxia or autism. Pushing the game piece back into the slot is a bit tricky and helps improve motor skills in children with muscle weakness.

This is not a toy suitable for children under three years to avoid swallowing the small parts. A user manual that explains how to play the game is included in the package so that your child can start enjoying the toy in no time. The double-sided cardboard cards and the pictures on the chips are made with extra-durable materials that protect against fading and scratches from heavy use.

Kids will learn the name and sound of every animal, and there are many of them in the 24-page book.
