### 5/5 — I love gramps

*2025-11-29*

Mr. grandpa teaching you how to camp in the very good fundamentals of the outdoors and what to bring on a camping trip is very very nice for me because I always wanted to go camping and I remember playing this game as a little little kid and it was very, very funny to hear the soundtrack again because it slaps so hard. I love this game so much because this game is grandpa. I love grandpa grandpa‘s Cool.

### 4/5 — A lot of fun

*2021-02-22*

My 4yo son quite enjoys this game. It's great to see him learning north, south, east and west. Looking forward to playing it more plus their other games.

### 5/5 — Another fun adventure with Grandpa!

*2017-04-16*

This is a high quality app that both entertains and educates. Kids will learn to identify different trees and animals.  They'll also learn basic camping information like fire safety. Great app!!

### 5/5 — Best educational app

*2016-08-29*

The best thing about this app is that it teaches you about nature and your north to the south to the east to the west skills

### 4/5 — Another very good game by these guys!

*2016-05-17*

Our family loves these Grandma and Grandpa games, they are all very well done, and the right mix of entertainment with education. This new one is also very good and fits in with the rest of the series. Only complaint is it gets a little repetitive faster than some of the others but the word-find is excellent because of how it highlights each word after it is found. Really fun, and just in time for summer!

### 2/5 — Getting to the point

*2016-05-15*

First I started to love the game u camp. But then I did the same old stuff over and over again and it got boring really boring and I'm surprised that the game I do not know the cost but it was a little to much for me but I thought I would give it a shot. But I would keep the game cause my 3 cousins love it so ya.

### 5/5 — The BEST!

*2016-05-07*

The video content is a great touch! What wins my approval is being sure every last coal is out on the fire!

### 3/5 — Cute but unsatisfactory

*2016-05-06*

Makes you want to go camping, which is great. But, then all your progress is lost when you stop and restart. Very repetitive. I guess that's ok for kids, but not really worth the price, just go camping with your children instead.

### 5/5 — Great for 5 yo!

*2016-05-06*

Loved the popcorn and word search. Making tracks was cool too!

### 5/5 — Just in time

*2016-05-05*

Great app. Some really nice stuff here. The bird and animal track identification games are really cool!
