- Sleeping Queens, from Gamewright, is hands down one of the favorite card games of my students from 1st grade through middle school. The kids love the crazy pictures and the fact that the game involves stealing cards from other players. As a teacher you can use the game as designed to teach/practice addition/subtraction, and with just a little variation include fact families, equivalent equations, unknown numbers (intro to variables,) or even multiplication/division.

About the Game:
We're proud to introduce this deluxe anniversary version of Sleeping Queens, or as we've affectionately dubbed it, the 'Strawberry Queen' edition. Why the Strawberry Queen? Well, the story goes that when we first produced Sleeping Queens we asked 8-year-old game inventor Miranda Evarts and family to brainstorm a long list of queens for us to choose from. We narrowed down the list based on a variety of factors, but accidentally left out Miranda's favorite queen from the original 12 - The Strawberry Queen. So this edition not only rectifies our oversight, but also adds some special powers to her royal Strawberryness - namely that she can't be stolen or put back to sleep!
