Hasbro Scatterpillar Scramble Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My daughter was really excited to get this game for her four year birthday. It was fun, however, the catepillar moves pretty fast. It was difficult for my 9 year old, myself, and especially my four year old, to get the marbles on. I wish there were different levels, like a slower one, for the younger kids. Overall, I guess ok product, but I'd increase the appropriate age level on the box, or implement the different levels idea.

Watch Scatterpillar wiggle and dance to the music in this fun race of fast-paced marble placing. He's all hands, so be careful as you put your marbles on his row of hands in front of you. Race to place your colored balls from the bottom row up to the top row to win. The 1st player to set all 8 marbles in Scatterpillar's hands wins. It sounds easy, but this scatterbrainest of caterpillars in the Zoobeedoobeezoo loves music and is constantly dancing and grooving. So, make sure that along the way,

ThinkFun Zingo Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this game for my children several years ago on the advice of the owner of my favorite toy store. I love board games, and my children were 3 and 5 then, and just starting to enjoy them as well. Well, we couldn't get the kids to stop playing Zingo. They played quietly for more than 2 hours. Since you can play with up to 8 players, we have had lots of neighborhood kids playing the game out on the front steps. Since then, I have bought at least 10 Zingo games -- I have given them to all my children's friends and I always keep a few around to give out for birthday gifts. Everyone loves this game.

Eeboo Mystery in the Forest Matching Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My daughters love memory games. This one is exceptional! Not only is this toy played like regular memory, it is easy to create narratives by laying out different pictures and making stories out of them. It said this in the description, but I had a hard time imagining my kids actually playing with it like that. I was wrong! Even I got into it... :)

iplay Diggity Dog Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a speech pathologist at Play on Words, I am always looking for good games to encourage language. Kids three years and up want a little challenge in their games--not everything left to chance! Diggity Dog is their first pick for fun. Choose your puppy and press the doghouse to listen for the number of barks. Count them out as you land on a space, dig a hole and the little bone sticks to your dog's magnetic nose. See if the color on the underside of the bone matches your dog and collect all three before heading home to win. There's just enough action to keep little hands busy and skill required to keep minds churning. Playing Diggity Dog involves auditory memory (remembering the number of barks), visual memory (remembering where your colored bones are), counting, and conversation negotiating turn-taking and discussing strategy. These are all skills that contribute to language development.

In this adorable first memory board game, kids help the puppies find their bones. Start by pressing on the electronic barking dog, and he will bark the number of spaces you move (1,2 or 3). When your puppy lands on a space beside a bone, he can pick it up using his magnetic nose. If the color of the bone matches your puppy, you get to move it to your doghouse. The first to find three matching bones wins.

I Spy Memory Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The game of memory is a great equalizer because little children are just as apt to remember where they saw the hidden images as older children or adults. This makes it great game for the whole family to play together. The images from the "I Spy" book illustrations are bright and creative. They don't match exactly- for instance, there might be two images of cats, but borrowed from different photographs in the I Spy books. So there is a bit more visual variety to spice things up. This is a much more attractive memory game than most, and would make an ideal gift for a child or family.

Let's Go Fishin Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)To clear up a few things: 1) The game uses 1 C battery, not 2 AAs. 2) There is no music as stated in the product description. 3) The fishing pole and fish are not magnetic as in other, smaller, wind-up versions of this game.
My biggest complaints are that it spins a little too fast, which means that the fish don't keep their mouths open for very long. And because the fishing pole is two plastic pieces with a small cone/cup shaped plastic knob (which is only a little smaller than the fish's mouths) instead of a magnet on a string as in the small, wind-up versions, catching fish isn't all that easy. It's not terribly hard, as I got the hang of it in a few minutes, but it's definitely not as easy as in the magnetic versions.
Lastly, the reason some people have trouble putting the game back into its box is because some of the fish are still in their "up" positions (sticking up, with their mouths open). You just need to rotate it manually until all fish are in their "down" positions. But be sure to only rotate it the way the thing normally rotates, though, otherwise you might damage it.
Also, I saw this at Target for less money.

The action fishing game where players try for the biggest catch! Each player has a separate fishing pole with plastic bait at the end of the line. As the fish open their mouths, carefully lower your line into the fish's mouth, catching it as it takes the bait! Requires 1 size C battery (not included). For 1 to 4 players.

Ravensburger No Peeking - Children's Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 4 year played this game with her speech therapist and loved it. It is an older game so I was excited to find it. She was so happy to get it for Christmas and wants to play it every day! We play it by picking an object from the bag and then describing it to other player(s) who then guess what the object is. Good for developing language arts skills.

Feed The Kitty Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought this game to play with our sons (ages 3 and 5) and they love it! It's easy to learn, quick to play, and a lot of fun. And unlike some of the kid games out there, it's not mind numblingly dumb or boring. Our boys love being able to roll the dice each time--and believe it or not, this is one of two games we own where there are no tantrums over who won and who lost. They just ask to play again, again, again!
It's even good for kids who aren't counting very high, and both the kids are engaged while we play. There are probably more educational games around, but this one is just plain fun. :)
A quick 'how to' for this game:
Roll the two dice.
Sleeping kitty - do nothing
Arrow - pass one of your mice to the person on your left
Mouse - take a mouse from the bowl
Food bowl - feed the kitty one of your mice
So if you roll an arrow and a food bowl, you pass one mouse to the left and put one in the bowl. The last person with mice left wins. Very simple to play and as I said up above, it's a quick moving game--no time to get bored.

Tomy Pop-Up Pirate Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a speech/language therapist, working with pre-schoolers age 3-5. They love this game! The anticipation of the pirate popping holds their interest (long enough to do their therapy) and they don't have to wait long for another turn. I wasn't thrilled about taking a toy with swords to school, but have only had to tell them once that "we don't fight with them, they're for the game." It has been frequently used, not treated too gently, but it is still in excellent working condition. I do not use the blue base included with the game, it seems unnecessary and only seems to make the game easier to tip over. The kids don't think they lose when the pirate pops, they think they won! Sometimes he jumps out on the first sword stuck in the barrel, other times it might be the last one! (I have no idea how this happens!) This is a very good beginner game, for learning turn-taking, although it is not particularly educational.

Its a barrel of fun for the whole family! Push the pirate into his barrel, select your favourite color swords, then take turns sliding a sword into the barrel slots. But beware - if the pirate pops up you're OUT! The last remaining player is the winner. No batteries required.

Eeboo Write Me a Story: Fairytale Mix-Up Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great product to promote literacy and imagination as it encourages kids to write their own stories with the help of a parent (and some fun themed stickers), but perhaps the price is a little expensive for what it is...essentially a nice notebook with a great cover and stickers. Still, it is an educational gift that would be fun for a preschooler.

iplay Poppa's Pizza Pile-Up Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 5 year old twins really like this game...it is sometimes difficult to balance the toppings, but that is why they like it so much. On the other hand, my 3 year old finds it very frustrating. If you are considering purchasing this for a younger child you can rough up the pizza part with a piece of sand paper to help with the slippage.

Click Here to see more reviews about: iplay Poppa's Pizza Pile-Up

Can you help Poppa complete his pizza with Poppa's Pizza Pile Up Game by International Playthings? Or will the pizza topple over before all the toppings have been added? Players take turns rolling the dice and placing cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms and pepperoni pieces onto the pizza pie. If you cause the pizza to tip and some of the toppings fall off, you lose. The player who can outlast all the other opponents wins the game. For advanced play you can take Poppa off his base and he wobbles around even more while holding the pizza. 2-4 Players Ages 4+

This toy definitely fits this description. All of the children who have played the game loved it. However, with the number of children I know will play with this game, I do not know how long the frog trampoline will last. It seems a little flimsy.

Don't Break the Ice Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Games for small children are notoriously hard to come by. "Don't Break the Ice" is one of the few available and a classic in its own right.
My young son loves this game and we play all sorts of variations including moving the main ice piece that holds the bear to different places so we can experiment with the "physics" of the game. (So there is a true educational element.) We also try to put the ice pieces back in the frame using different patterns of insertion. This helps kill the time factor in getting the game pieces ready to play.
With its minimum of rules anyone can pick this game up in a minute. It's fun and can be played by "kids" of all ages. Given its low price, it's a no miss. Even if little children get more fun out of making the bear fall than not, so what? Think of it as a more versatile "hammer & peg bench" toy.
There are some durability issues. If one of the tabs that hold the ice breaks, you are out of luck. The frame consists of two pieces that slide together and the connection is prone to breakage. Still, at this price point it's a lot easier to replace than many of the fragile toys that cost far more. In fact you could buy every toy in the Milton Bradley "Cootie" line and still be under the cost of just one other plastic toy.
A good bet for a good price.

Learning Resources Match and Spell Word Puzzle Cards, 3-Letter Spelling Puzzle Cards Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 2.5 yr old son loves his "words" puzzles. So I bought these. They are double sided and he choses whether to do the "red side" or the "blue side".
But we also have the same sort of puzzle idea from Carson Dellosa and they are SOOO much better. They are NOT double sided, but the pictures are nicer, the letters are CAPITAL, not lower case, and the pieces can NOT be used with other pieces. They are all cut to fit together with only the other pieces of the SAME word. It's great. Carson-Dellosa products rock. Check them out, they are much much better quality too, and larger.
My son is now over 3 and still loves putting the words together with the Carson Dellosa puzzles, he hasn't touched these in months. If I pull them out, he says, "No momma, the other words!" that says it all!
