The moment I opened the Fantasy Fortunes deck, I knew that I was about to relive every silly fantasy that I had in my preteen to teenage years. To say that these cards made me giddy and lightheaded would be an understatement. I phoned every preteen girl in my family and, with Fantasy Fortunes in hand, I was able to read them their fortunes on everything from getting caught sleeping in class to having a bad hair day.
The Fantasy Fortunes deck, for girls ages 10 and up, is colorful and eye-catching. The illustrations clearly show what each card is about. On each card, there are four fortunes to be read, one on each edge of the card. There is also a "Your Life" card which acts similar to the Significator used in Tarot readings.
The deck comes with easy to learn instructions for using the cards. There is the "Yes and No Game", "Secret Wish Game", "The Mystic Fortune Reading", "Who's Who", "Dream Date Game", and "Card-A-Day".
Whether you are looking for a fun play deck that will literally keep your daughter involved for hours at a time or you are interested in teaching your daughter Tarot deck techniques, this is the deck you want.
Excellent and highly recommended!
