Customer Reviews

My neice loves this toy!5
I got this for my neice after hearing she played with it all the time at the occupational therapist's office (her brother has autism). She was thrilled when she opened it, and spent a good part of Christmas morning playing with it.

Loved it loved it loved it!4
This toy was such a good buy, it kept my child entertained for hours without any video game, cd, electronic anything! All you need is a brain and the ability to think! Fun Fun Fun!

Fun but bulky3
Our family truly enjoys the Rush Hour game and tried this one as well - it is bigger and bulkly and convenient for travel. I alos find the puzzles to be a bit easier. The pieces don't slide as well as Rush Hour.

Bunny Hop - Best Christmas Game!

Bunny Hop

Bunny Hop - Best Christmas Game!
From Educational Insights

Customer Reviews

A Three Year Old's Dream5
My daughter got this game for her third birthday and now not a day goes by when she does not want to play it. Aside form the actual game play she loves to sort and count the bunnies. It's even helped a lot with her patience. That in itself is HUGE! The instructions are simple so she easily teaches the game to others. Even the tricky part about swapping bunnies. It's been great for her. Those awards people know what they're talking about when they pick out these toys!

Fun game for preschoolers!4
As a mother of an active 3.5 year old, I too am always on the look-out for fun, educational games. "Bunny Hop" is definitely one of those games that engages young children, and best of all they are able to play by themselves [once they get the hang of the game]. No reading skills are required here, just a knowledge of colors [here, the colors used are red, green, yellow and blue].

Each player chooses a color, and then rolls the die - depending on which color comes up, the player then chooses the bunny that has the same color [as reflected on the die] and pushes it into the carrot patch. if the bunny hops [some hop, and some don't], then the player gets to keep the bunny. Though the game can have a few variations [and we even came up with our own rules], the one who gets bunnies in all 4 colors is the victor.

Great for a 3-4 year old5
Bought this after seeing in Parents Magazine. Did not diappoint. My daughter loved it! Would not recommend until 3 though. It is a simple game yet really fun especially since it doesn't require any complex skills. And it is a game that can be enjoyed with the family, or by the child independently. All in all, highly recommended. I also recommend the fishing game, Gator Golf and Candyland for preschoolers.

Features

  • Funny bunnies hop and hide in this fast-action memory game
  • Includes carrot patch game board, 20 bunnies in four different colors, 4 farmers, 1 die and game instructions
  • A great family game
  • Especially fun for kids
  • 2 to 4 player¿s game

Articulate - Best Christmas Game

Articulate

Articulate - Best Christmas Game
From Drumond Park

Customer Reviews

Fantastic5
I first played Articulate at my aunt's house with my cousins, and it was so good that we had to buy one for ourselves! No family gathering is complete without a game of Ariculate! It is so much fun and always guaranteed to make you laugh! Buy it now!

Best board game ever5
We bought this for christmas when the family come over but gave it a trial run with my cousin, aunt and mum today and there wasn't much silence in the house cause of all the laughter.

We really enjoyed it, just a great game that seems more entertaining the more people are involved.

If you could only own one board game, I'd choose this one, you shouldn't even hesitate buying it.

Brilliant fun!5
This game is great fun. We played it on boxing day with the whole family (me 27, bouyfriend 38, his sister 40, her partner 38, her daughter 13, and my boyfriends mum and dad 57 & 60) and we had a brilliant time. The hardest thing is knowing who some of the people are but you could always pass if you didn't know but half of the fun is making up who you think it is for your team to guess! I would definitely recommend this game to anyone looking for a great way to entertain. It breaks down barriers and would be great at a party where people don't necessarily know each other well as well as great at an everyday party. Highly recommend!

Product Description

The hilarious team game of quick fire descriptions. Players try to describe as many card entries as possible to their team members in 30 seconds. The first team round the board wins. It's loud, intense and brilliantly funny. 4 - 20+ players. 12 Years +
