Educational, but better for older preschoolers/Kindergarteners July 18, 2007

We bought this game along with Zingo (that rocks, btw) for our kids age 5 and 3. It engaged the [...], but was way over the head of our bright [...] So I would recommend it for children 5 and up - even older kids (6,7) could enjoy this.
 Great for rainy days June 14, 2007
My children have enjoyed playing this board game for several years now. It has held up well. It is easy enough to play that children over a wide range of ages can play together. Great for family nights, too.

My son got this for Easter and asks to play several times a day. Like some other reviewers mentioned, he does not get the strategy part of the game as far as blocking other opponents or choosing the animal that would allow him to get 4 chips in a row. He will instead just pick which ever animal card he likes best from the 3 he has in his hand and put the chip on that one, and his chips are all spread out. I always try to explain why he wants to choose certain animals so that he can get 4 chips in a row to win. It is also confusing to him as he thinks he can only play on the side of the board with the animal facing him... I don't know why it was made that way. He also doesn't grasp the unicorn and dragon concept as far as being able to take a chip away or put one anywhere when he gets these cards... he is always looking for a unicorn or dragon on the board. I think the free spaces are silly as you only need 2 chips with these (3 total in a row with the free space) and they are in all 4 corners, so it makes the game too quick.
I like the idea that my son is learning some new animals and identifying the pictures with the board. I like the concept of the game and I think he will get the stragey in time. He enjoys it, so as a Mother, that makes me happy too.
Good game to play and grow with February 18, 2007

Our whole family enjoys this game. My 4 yo doesn't quite get all the strategy, but that is the appeal. The game grows from something simple like matching to more complex strategy, watching the board, and using wild cards. Much more enjoyable then the typical 4 yo game. It is really not completely appropriate for a 4 yo, but can be adjusted easily. My son got it for Christmas and is already figuring out the game on a whole new level. Well worth the money!

This is a great game. The kids love it and the adults don't mind playing, too.
Wonderful gift to give ages 4-6. Well worth every cent.
