Bean Bag Toss Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Please note the dimensions of the toy 11x11 inches and the bean bags are TINY (2x2 inches). Just wasn't what I was expecting. Plastic base is cheap and flimsy - don't expect a lot of durability out of this toy. But it is cheap and fun.

Lunch Box Games - Jelly Bean Jumble Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This game is okay and my 4 year old day care child really seems to like it.
However the rollers don't always roll true, it is hard to tell (sometimes)
which color it is really telling you to take. I think the rollers could
have been made better. So far the game is holding up, only played five or six
times, but concerned that the rollers could easily be broken, especially with
some of the children I watch.

iPlay Pop N Drop Penguins Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This game is almost exactly like Trouble. If you already own that game, I would not recommended buying this game for the small twist: If a penguin lands on the end of a bridge, the player slides a lever and penguins on the top of the bridge fall into the "water" below, going back to their starting places.
There are 3 faults (1 major and 2 minor) with the game design:
(1) major - the penguins don't stay in their holes very well. It is very easy to knock the penguins out when you're reaching to pop the die, moving your pieces around, or just accidentally jostling the board a bit. On top of the bridges, the holes are especially too big and the penguins simply lean over. Some of the (unintentional) fun of the game comes from laughing at how many times you've accidentally knocked over someone's penguins.
(2) minor - the bubble with the die inside is not as effective as the one in Trouble. About a dozen times during our last game, the die got stuck between faces or didn't seem to bounce at all. Also note that the number two on the die is shown with 2 in-line pips (I think they're called) and not 2 diagonal ones like most dice.
(3) minor - the starting locations and ending locations are not color coded at all. Younger players may have difficulty remembering their home area or knowing the area they're supposed to finish at.
If you don't have Trouble, you might go with this, but having both, I can tell you that Trouble feels more substantially built.

Diggin Catch and Shoot Basketball Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been using this for 4 months now (bought it at Discovery Chanel store before Amazon has it). I use it regularly, it is reliable, the motor is strong, it also comes with recorded voices. Overall it is fund and I really enjoy it. I want to buy another one to play with the kids. So I just happen to read the review to see what others thought about this product. Very disappointed to see a low grade on this item. Many say it is not stable, it is flimsy, and it is cheap. I understand what they said. But all of their frustrations are resolved by adding 1 or 2 screws to the installation. Just screw it to the door or the wall people! It is a good price for what it can do. We as consumers sometimes need to fill in our part where it is needed so we don't have to pay $100 for something like this.

Hungry Hungry Hippos Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This toy is not worth the money! I remember playing this game with one of my brothers when I was little, and we always had a good time. I was hoping to replicate the experience for my children; unfortunately, this game has been brought back in a junky, poor quality version. The hippos have to be removed from the game board with their necks extended and locked into place in order to put the game away in the box. My kids (6&4) have a hard time putting it together or putting it away by themselves (huge minus in my book!). The hippos sometimes become detached from the game during play. Their necks *frequently* get stuck in the extended position, necessitating stopping the game so that it can get fixed. The marbles are cheap, hollow plastic rather than the heavier marbles I remember from my childhood. The stickers don't stay on the hippos very well, so none of our hippos have eyes anymore. Even the box itself is incredibly flimsy if you hope to use it as a storage box for the game. Don't waste your money! Our game is sitting in the donation bin waiting to be taken to charity!

Simple Machines- Set of 5 Machines Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this set to use in my fourth grade classroom. Simple machines are much easier to understand if students are able to experience them. This set allows that experience to a degree, but it just does not hold up to repeated use. Additionally, a few of the simple machines do not illustrate the concept as well as they could. Save your money and look for a different product.

Chutes & Ladders Book Series Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just recently purchased this game for my almost 4 year-old, and I find that she does not enjoy it as much as "Zingo" and "Hi-Ho Cherry-O". Part of the reason is because this game runs longer than the other board games we have. It takes a while to get from 1 to 100, and her attention span does not last the length of the game! What I do like about the game is that reinforces the teaching of numbers [1-100] and also counting. Obviously, the game teaches patience, taking turns and coping with setbacks as well.
All in all, this is a fun and educational board game but if you're purchasing it for those who are preschoolers and below, it may not be as fun for them due to the length of the game. Also, this is a smaller, travel version [comes in a book-shaped case] and the board folds up, so if you buy this for a younger child, you may want to set up the game and fold up the board afterwards to prevent it from being ripped apart.

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

(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... :)

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.

Konexi -Deluxe Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Other people have written that this game is like a combination of Scrabble and Jenga (which is largely true) but I want to talk about something else. Beyond the fun game that is described in the rules, the letters of Konexi are attractive objects both to look at and touch. If Konexi is left out on the table, people are naturally attracted to it and start making words and towers. Konexi also makes a great solitaire spelling/balance game. Not only is Konexi a fun game, it is a captivating (and well constructed) toy.

The gravity-defying word game. Konexi is the 3D word-building game that will have you pushing your luck and on the edge of your seat. Take turns adding letters to a teetering tower of words. Go for longer words - upward, downward, or sideways - to score more points. But watch out...the next letter may cause gravity to kick in and a Konexi collapse.

Duck Duck Goose Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 3 1/2 year old absolutely loves this game. She likes to sing the song and the pieces are just the right size for her. Some of the cardboard ducks can be a little flimsy but we've had great fun with this game as a family. I also like the fact that the game is short and winning is "luck of the duck" so it helps us as parents work on good sportsmanship while playing multiple times so everyone can win.

Duck Duck Goose has been around for years, and kids still love this game. Now you can play the same beloved nursery school game in a game board version. Move the animated goose around the pond, and make its wings flap up and down. With each splash, the goose calls out "Duck" or "Goose". When you hear "Goose", pick up the adjacent duckling, and see if the color on the bottom matches one of the colors in your nest. The first player to gather three ducklings into his or her nest wins. Press the tail, and everyone gets to hear the song.
