We here at MiC are skeptical as to the educational credentials of Professor Noggin – what university is she affiliated with, we wonder – but we can’t argue with the success of Professor Noggin’s games. They currently have 39 different titles for their aged 7+ trivia games, covering different topics across science, geography, and history.
The games are also available in French under the name “Professeur Caboche” which makes us even more suspicious about this alleged “Professor” Noggin. Anyway, the games have sold more than 1 million copies and are a fun way to sneak some learnin’ into your kids without them noticing.
Note: To clarify, this is still a Canadian company. They sell card games and trivia about American topics (such as American states and presidents), but this is purely for educational purposes. We have no control over the content of their educational materials.
