Learning Center Recommendation: Ooga Booga
Ooga Booga is a funny memory game for the entire family. Each card has either an ancient word or wild gesture. Players take turns laying down a card to add on to the chant. You have to listen closely and follow the clues to recite the chain without a mistake.
"Ooga Booga is one of the easiest and one of the hardest games at the same time. You will noticeably make progress quite quickly and I also realized that practicing with Ooga Booga also helps me with concentration and memorizing at school. The best part about it is that you learn while you play without getting the impression that you are studying. That’s why Ooga Booga is my favorit game."
