“NAMiTS is a stimulating game for children and a wonderful way that families can connect in a meaningful way.  Kids and adults love NAMiTS—this creative game provides lots of challenge in a fun and relaxed format.  It helps children learn and stretch their imagination while having fun!”

Katherine L. Ray

Child Psychiatrist

“What a truly enjoyable game…I have NAMiTS in my examining rooms and waiting rooms and have had the great pleasure of watching parents—and of course children—playing while waiting for their appointments.  The game is a great aide to early development of imagination, especially in young children.  It is easy to play, no matter the person’s age.”

“I have played NAMiTS with young children, including my own grandchild, and we had fun with the open-ended questions.  I loved how much I learned about what different meanings words can have for each child.  This game is a wonderful way to connect with a child and is a great conversation starter.”

“I am writing in support of the outstanding educational game called NAMiTS.  This product will greatly assist parents in helping readers develop strong cognitive, linguistic abilities.  Its rapid retrieval of words and creative questions that foster higher levels of thinking build a high degree of verbal efficiency that forms the foundation for literacy skills.  The game’s format lends itself to a range of ages, language abilities, and academic settings.  It is a treasure and should be in every classroom.”

“Every parent looks forward to the time when their child becomes a reader.  Parents can play a critical part in making that dream happen.  NAMiTS Junior gives parents the guidance they need to help their children became ready for the challenges of literacy and learning.  It is a toolkit in the palm of their hands.”

“I love NAMiTS.   As a speech-language pathologist working in the school setting, I just recently discovered your product and ordered three versions for use with my students.  .  It’s not only great for building vocabulary and categorization skills, but also wonderful for students working on improving retrieval skills.  It’s so convenient to carry around that I am able to use it as “conversation starters” with students participating in social skills groups that meet during lunch.  I posted a recommendation for NAMiTS on a popular website used by numerous school-based speech-language pathologists.  Kudos to you!”

“I have used NAMiTS in my kindergarten classroom for several months now, and the children thoroughly enjoy playing.   We recently started using NAMiTS in group work and the students have liked brainstorming and working together.  We’ve spent as many as three days on a single question.”

“My children really enjoy playing NAMiTS.  It gets them thinking, and they like the challenge.  It’s fun to hear the answers that they come up with, and they are learning as they play.”

“I recently accompanied my grandchildren on a trip to Disneyworld.  We brought NAMiTS along, clipped to our backpacks.  I was amazed at the fun we had with the game, and at how much it helped us to enjoy our waits in line.  Other families joined in on our game, and we all enjoyed seeing the great answers that the kids (and adults) were able to come up with.  The game exposed the kids to lots of new words, and the portability was a real plus.”

“I tried NAMiTS and found it very useful and enjoyable.  After playing the game for awhile I asked my students what they thought and I heard comments like ‘I learned a lot;’ ‘It got us thinking;’ ‘I like it, it gets your brain started.’  The children really enjoyed it.”

“Our waitress at Ricetta’s Pizzeria gave us a NAMiTS game to play with our daughter while our order was being prepared.  NAMiTS made the waiting time fun, and our daughter loved brainstorming for answers to the game questions.  On the way out, we bought her the game to take home, and at her suggestion, one for each of her cousins to enjoy.”

“Sunrise elementary is using NAMiTS as an emergency preparedness supply item in each of their classroom emergency buckets.  During an evacuation or emergency situation, nothing is better to keep children’s minds occupied than a rousing NAMiTS game.  We like the idea that there are no parts to lose, and children are still learning while they play.  We feel the game addresses vocabulary development, productive thinking, and teamwork.”
