Big Brain Academy Wii Degree Educational Wii Games 


Big Brain Academy:
Wii Degree

Big Brain Academy is a great game for kids and adults who enjoy some mental and "quick thinking" types of games.

There are memory games, number-crunching games and games involving visual recognition.

Although this game is aimed toward players 8 years and older, some customer reviews reported children age 4-6 enjoying it as well.

Smarty Pants Educational Wii Games 


Smarty Pants:
Trivia for Everyone

The Smarty Pants Educational Wii Games are "smart" or intuitive based on age. When players choose a "Mii" (a personalized character for the game), they enter their age. From that point the game offers questions and challenges appropriate for that age range. (Impressive feature!)

Rather than being focused in on one type of learning (words, math, etc.), this is more of a general information or a trivia type of game - and is an excellent choice for entire families and groups to play.

My Word Coach Educational Wii Games 


My Word Coach

My Word Coach Educational Games are focused on "improve your vocabulary" types of challenges. No matter whether you are at adult or child level, there are great challenges to either know or learn the meanings of words.

Note: After the game is started and played for a time, the challenge increases and becomes generally more difficult than what is really possible for kids of young ages (up to teen years). In short - the words get really tough after a while! (Something to keep in mind before purchasing the game.)

Cranium Kabooki Educational Wii Games 


Cranium Kabookii

The Cranium Kabooki Educational Wii Games are based on the board game, "Cranium" - and are actually quite similar.

Cranium Kabookie has a fun and unique feature - the decoder glasses. These help the player to find out the answer to a scrambled letter clue, without divulging the answers to any other players that may be watching the game.

Note: The average customer rating on this game is lower than what is given to the rest of the games here on this page. However - the main complaint was that that the scrambled letters on the game screen were simple enough to make the game "cheatable". But, this was the case for adults playing the game rather than kids - this can actually help to make the game simple enough for younger kids to enjoy more without excessive challenge.

The majority of reviews were quite complimentary for this game, especially for those who already love the game, "Cranium".
