Top Trumps Cars 2 is a set of cards that is obviously spawned from the success of the new Cars 2 movie from 2011. Many products hit the shelf following its release but I hadn't seen Top Trumps cards until Harry opened them after his birthday party. The set comes in an attractive looking red plastic holder which keeps the cards safe and secure. The clear perspex front operates like a door and hinges open to allow you to get the cards in and out with ease. I really like the plastic box as well because it stops the cards getting damaged in any way, and I've seen they do come in a variety of colours depending on which set you buy (the Shrek green is particularly eye-catching!).With the game,you get a total of 30 Top Trumps playing cards, as well as 2 extra cards, one with the Cars 2 picture on, and a 'How to Play' instruction card. The game is fairly simple to play, and a 6 years old, I would say Harry is the right age to be playing this as he understands the concept and idea, and can easily use the numbers on the cards in the way they are supposed to be used too. Each of the 30 cards features a characters from the Cars 2 movie, from the instantly recognisable ones such as Lightning McQueen, Mater and Francesco Bernoulli to the less famous characters like Uncle Topolino and Fillmore. There is a good sized image of the character, with the name of the character in block capitals at the top of the card alongside the flag of the country where the car comes from (Italy, USA, UK etc).Below the image is a text box with some tiny writing, perhaps too small for younger players to read, about the character, but if I am honest, Harry hasn't really shown much interest in wanting to either read these boxes or have them read to him, he just wants to get on and play! It's a good addition to the card for fans wanting to know more, but the writing is tiny as they've had to squish it into a small card, and therefore might look a bit intimidating to new readers. Finally, next to this is the important bit for the game, what I call the stats. These vary according to which Top Trumps game you have obviously, but for Cars 2, the categories are Friendship, courage, humour, fame and speed.To play the game, you deal the cards out evenly between the players (I find it works best with just 2 people), and then you hold your cards face down. You both turn over the top card, and one player (I say youngest first!) picks the statistic he thinks will win over the card you've got. He says (for example) Speed: 30. If the other player's speed is higher than 30, he wins and player 1 has to give him his card. If player 2's is lower than 30, player 1 wins and gets the cards. If both card have the same statistic, they go in the middle and are given to the winner. You keep playing like this until one player has all the cards in the game and is therefore the winner. The game is fantastic for younger children to play because it is so helpful in terms of their number skills, and they don't even realise they are learning! It's teaching them value of numbers, higher/lower than, and larger numbers than they may encounter at school, especially for younger children.Harry absolutely loves playing this game, and since he received it for his birthday, we've played it so many times already and he hasn't got bored! He's since got a few more sets, Top Gear and 3 supercars sets (lucky me!) and they are just as much fun to play. It's a nice game to play on a quiet day in, and as I say, is educational without the kids realising it too so even better! The cards are a really good quality, nice and thick so they won't get too battered too easily, and the images on them are lovely and clear, and bright too so they appeal to younger players. It's a fab game for all the family from ages 6+, and you can get so many Top Trumps sets online, there is something to suit everyone! Highly recommended by both Harry and I.

It's Top Trumps, what more can you say!We all played them as a kid and now my kids are playing them and loving the game. My son loves Cars and Cars 2, so he fell in love with them. On the serious note, he is 5 years old and playing this game teaches him so much..... Names (learning to recognise the characters), Numbers (how to say 34 or 56), simple maths (what number is higher or lower), counting (when dealing the cards. He is learning without even realising.An old game that will never die out. The quality is good, nice little case to keep them in and good quality card which doesn't rip easily. A great game for those "i'm bored" moments.

My 4 year old son loves cars so we got these for him to practise numbers upto 100 which he is familiar with. He has got the hang of the game quickly and loves looking at the stats for the different characters. He really likes this set and they help him practise which number is greater, a great buy.

If your child likes top trumps they'll like this. If your child liked the film Cars they'll like this. If they just like cars generally they'll like this. Top trumps was one of the best ideas for kids for years. They play it for hours and still play after years and all ages can play it.

My 5 year old and 3 year olds love playing with these top trumps. It's good for their maths skills and it helps them take turns. It also teaches them about winning and losing. Better for the younger ones as the numbers don't go up very high. But a good fun product.

Great for memory, as the more you play it the more you get to remember who has the best stats. Can also be linked with the Cars 2 dvd and to re-enact the story. My son enjoys playing it, he also likes to say the new characters names.

My son had this as a stocking filler. He is an avid Cars 2 fan and had already played Top Trumps before but was thrilled to get a Cars 2 version. He is 6 years old and enjoys comparing the features of each vehicle.

My five year old was very happy with these and a few games were played on Christmas and boxing days. It helps both his word recognition and thinking about numbers as a bonus.

Classic Top Trumps game - keeps my 4 and 6 year old entertained for a reasonable amount of time. All the new characters appear so was a very 'cool' present apparently!

A great take on the ever popular top trumps game although my 3 year old doesn't play the game we just lay them out and remember the names. It's still good fun.

My son loves the Cars films and video game. He loves the cards too and has spent hours playing Top Trumps with his friends. Money well spent!

As a Cars2 addict, our 7-year old grandson loved these and, when not playing the game, used the cards for games from his own imagination.

I bought this for my 6 year olds birthday present and he loved it. Good to play any where, on the go in the car, on an airplane etc.....

My grandson is a big Cars fan and loved these cards. They are very good quality and the price is cheaper than I have found elsewhere.

Top Trumps are great for kids they love playing them but at the same time they're learning which makes the cards good for education.
