Actually, I'm thinking this is ideal for going away for a week during the summer break.

One day, you will have to send us pictures of this awesome library of yours. The kids must have so much fun! How do they ever stay quiet? Anyway, the quality of Imaginets is awesome.

We would use the pieces on a whiteboard easel that we have but encourage the children to store the pieces in the case. I like that you can follow the cards like a puzzle or design your own pictures.
