When Chris and I went to BlogHer this summer, one of our favorite expo hall visits was at the Sifteo Cube booth. They were the creators of a creative new gaming system – portable, small, simple, yet completely engaging.
(We kinda got addicted.)
Sifteo consists of small blocks that interact with each other when you touch their sides together. They require cognitive skills, but very little coordination, which meant that they’d be perfect for Ali.
(Poor girl. She can use her mind, but not always her hands.)
As suspected, Ali loves the Sifteo Cubes. They come with four games, all which have encouraged her to think spatially, something that I’m personally not very good at. All of the games also have cute intro stories that really excite her about playing, and she’s enjoyed using them both during her free time and for school play.
Our favorite game, Chroma Splash, consists of different colored dots, and you have to plan ahead and figure out how to erase all of them in the right order.
Another game, Word Caravan, has helped Ali be able to take individual letters and form them into different words. I like this game because most word scrambling games are WAY too advanced for her age, but this game’s simplicity allows her to learn how to think about how to form words from mixed-up letters.
Code Cracker is a math game, where you have to add, subtract, and multiply to unlock the secret code, and obviously, she enjoys that one as well.
The Sifteo Cube system is valued at $129.95, and it comes pre-loaded with four games. And they’ve generously offered to give a set to one of you!

Sifteo looks so cool! I think I would use it as we. Would be nice to keep at my house for when my grandson comes over. I saw your post on FB and came here to read your review. Thanks!

I would love to win a set of Sifteo Cubes. As I read your post about them I had a hard time figuring out who would love them and benefit from them more, my 5 yo or 7 yo. So of course I’ll win one set and buy another!
I would love some Sifteo Cubes- they’re awesome!
These look so fun! My kids would love it.
I want one!
I’d love to win! For my 5 year old son of course :)
I LOVE these cubes! Will definitely keep my eyes peeled for them …
How did I never “like” you on Facebook before today? For shame. At least it’s done now!
“liked” sifteo on Facebook, too. :)
Neat! They look like fun :)
Love the concept of this game! My granddaughter would love this.

I’m in too…liked Sifteo on FB.
Nice find!
Very neat gaming/educational item!
I retweeted your tweet about Siftio. I think I would like word scramble most of all. It sounds like word game fans would love sitting and helping the children in their lives play this cube game.
I liked Sifteo on Facebook and also left a comment on the link they had on their wall to your blog.
I have already liked you on facebook, many months ago. That’s where I saw your post about Sifteo. I really like the fact that you can order another cube for the game. Perhaps they will keep adding more games.
Ooooh, I want one! I mean, my four-year-old wants one. Yeah.
would love to win thanks
Awesome giveaway, keeping my fingers crossed!! Thanks

Oooooo! Me! Pick me!
Oh, what fun. I would love to play with these! (funny story: when I swyped the word “love” on my phone keyboard, the phone guessed “lube”, instead. I got a good chuckle out of that one.)
Can’t wait to win these
I LOVE you on facebook, and just liked Sifteo on facebook as well. This looks like an amazing gift that all four of our nephews would enjoy (they are 5-9). Thank you for the opportunity and Merry Christmas!
Thanks not the opportunity!
I already follow you on twitter AND FB :)
These do look fun. They remind me of a letter game my brother has – it’s basically the same cubes (but 7?) and you build as many words as you can before the timer beeps.
This looks like a fun variation!
These would be great for my 3 y.o. I already like you on facebook.
Followed you on Twitter! Followed Sifteo! Posted to FB!!
These are so cool…

How neat! Sounds like a gaming system that is actually educational! Gotta check into this…
Oooh I have a friend who would love these…and I could see getting rather hooked myself!
