Creative Playthings Reading Lotto: House (1968)


 From 1968, here are all of the graphic cards from Creative Playthings' Reading Lotto.

"A game that helps the pre-school child to name familiar objects and the early-reading child to associate the picture with the written word."

This is copyright 1968 by Creative Playthings.

The drawings are all full color, bold, stylized pictures of what would be, over fifty years ago, the everyday objects found in the home. This is part of a series of Reading Lottos which include:

Things That Go

Zoo

House

Farm

City

As the child "learns to name each object, he will develop an interest in the printed label which accompanies it." 

I believe we had a set of these when I was a kid, but it was the Zoo version. There is no credit for who drew and/or designed the Reading Lotto, which was the norm. Enjoy the graphics. I sure did.

What a great graphic set. An excellent example of the nostalgic and psychedelic styles coming together in the late 60s, and for kids no less! This mash-up was ubiquitous at the time.
