Great idea, look forward to playing this with my daughter.

But, from the article: "the flip side to that in the case of DragonBox is that you don’t learn the reasons for the rules. My kids (particularly my five-year-old) have no idea why, when you drag a card below another one, you have to drag it below all the other cards on the screen."

Games like this still have a place, but knowing the reasons and the why of things is still incredibly important.
