Melon Rind Jump 1

Jump 5 by Melon Rind games was so much fun to play! It is a game that can also be educational as you practice your addition, subtraction, and multiplication skills based on multiples of 5's. There are three different ways to play the game - and I am even impressed with their directions. They are easy to read and understand! Basically, you are trying to build up and down on a stack of cards counting by 5's. Some versions of the game are speed-based while others are turn-based. I would highly suggest getting the game if you have kids at home to play with!

We have several versions of this game. My son likes this game and asks to play it. He prefers the jump 3 version over the others we have. I plan to buy a few other versions of this game to practice skip counting.

It’s a great game to learn basic counting! The quality is amazing! I really love that iPhone-box-like feeling of the thick box—nice cards and a very lovely design. At first, I bought levels 1–3 to see if it was good. Then I bought 4–6 😉. Now we’re at Jump 3 with 5-year-olds. I highly recommend the whole set, along with Froggies and Halli Galli, to learn basic counting!

Great set. Very motivating for our son to play and math is not his favorite subject. He asks to play this game and loves it when he beats his parents in a math game. We loved Jump 1 for when he was in pre-K / K, so we picked this set up for 1st grade. Our only issue is that the set only includes even numbers. So if you want your kid to learn to add by two, you won't learn 3+2 because 3 is an odd number. This card deck only helps with learning to count by even numbers (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, & 20) and it helps kids visualize that you add two to go up and down between them. Because of the deck only having even numbers, I highly suggest that the company come out with a Jump 2 ODD version so kids can learn to to add by two across odd numbers as well (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, & 21.) It would be even cooler if those even and odd sets could be combined together to make a super Jump 2 game with all numbers present at the same time so you can learn all the addition facts for #2. Overall, this set does help kids learn half of their +2 addition facts and how to count by twos which will help with multiplication facts. Its a great math game, but needs to be expanded by the creators to include odd numbers.

Jump 5 by Melon Rind Games is a fun and educational card game that helps kids practice addition, subtraction, and multiplication with multiples of 5. With three play modes—speed-based and turn-based—it offers versatility for family playtime. The nostalgic illustrations will appeal to grandparents, and while the game could use higher numbers and more math operations, parents can easily adapt the rules. The cards have a nice matte finish, and clear directions make supervision easy. Overall, it’s a thoughtfully designed game that I highly recommend!

My 4 year old loves this game!

Fun game my 3 and 5 year olds enjoy.

I home school my kids and am working on teaching my 1st grader to skip count by 5s. Kids respond so much better to learning through play so I ordered this game. She loves it! We had fun and even her older brother joined in. After a few rounds she was already building confidence with skip counting. The game comes with directions for different ways to play so we can up the challenge and won’t get bored. Definitely recommend this game!
