    • Perfect Game for Little Hands and Growing Minds!
Pattern Name: Squirrel Game
The media could not be loaded. T his squirrel game is a huge hit in our house! It’s super easy for toddlers to learn, and the gameplay is just the right length to hold their attention. It’s fantastic for building fine motor skills—using the squirrel tweezers to pick up the acorns is both fun and great for hand-eye coordination. The game also naturally teaches colors, counting, and taking turns, which makes it a great learning tool without feeling like a lesson. Even older kids (and adults!) enjoy playing along, which makes it a fun family activity. Highly recommend for toddlers and preschoolers! ... show more

    • Perfect Toddler Game!
Pattern Name: Squirrel Game
Adorable fun game for toddlers! Easy to understand and use the little squirrel "tweezers" to pick up the acorns. Well-made and lots of different ways to play to increase / decrease difficulty based on age and development.

    • Great game for little ones!
Pattern Name: Squirrel Game
This is such a fun game for little ones! Emphasizes color recognition and matching, counting, taking turns, fair play, and winning and losing! The hardest part was for my little one to be able to grasp the squirrel tightly enough to use as the pinchers for picking up acorns. There is a space you can spin where you can sneak an acorn from another player and a space where the wind blows all your acorns away. I personally like these because it's a gentle way of introducing them to strategy and the not-always-winning aspects of a game. It's well made, we have had it for several years and it has been played by many kids! Even young 2 or 3 year olds can definitely play under close supervision since the acorns could be a choking hazard. We have this ourselves and have given it as a gift too. It's always a hit! ... show more

    • Great quality and perfect for pre-k/k age
Pattern Name: Squirrel Game
My 4 year old loves this game. It's great for developing fine motor skills, colors, and playing with a group. It goes fast enough to where she stays engaged and doesn't get bored. The quality of this game is excellent. The pieces are sturdy and this game will last. I will be looking for other games from this company because I am so impressed. ... show more

    • My 2 year old loves this game!
Pattern Name: Squirrel Game
I bought this game for my 2 year old after seeing a recommendation on a Mom group page on Facebook. My daughter was interested in playing a game, but I was having trouble finding one that she could understand. This game is so cute! It's easy to understand and fun to play. Now, it is recommended for 3 year olds and I do see why. My daughter loves when she spins a color and is starting to pick up on the squirrel pictures. She has a hard time understanding what the 1 and 2 mean. My goals for her are to understand the mechanics of playing a game, taking turns, recognizing colors, the fine motor skills, and knowing and following the rules. She practices all of those with this game! Highly recommend! ... show more

    • Cutest Game
Pattern Name: Squirrel Game
This game is really dear! My three-year-old enjoys it as well as my 10-year-old, and I do too actually :) It is sometimes difficult to find toys/games we can all have fun with as a family but this one does not disappoint. I was a little worried that my daughter (age 3) would have a meltdown when she saw one of us "sneaking" one of her acorns or losing them all to the windstorm but she pleasantly surprised me. She really enjoys "sneaking" everyone else's upon landing on that on her turn and there are plenty of giggles to go around. She also likes using the squirrel to pick up the acorns. I didn't know if she would be able to successfully pick them up at first but since the acorns are made of a rubbery material they don't slip out very easily at all. She would practice by picking them up with her own hands at first and set them in between the squirrel's hands but by the end of the the first game she had it down! In my opinion, this is a great game. The usual board games move too slow or have too many rules to keep her attention but she was fully engaged from start to finish with this one and always asks to play again. It helps with identifying & matching colors, counting, taking turns and just being a good sport in general. My son has a lot of fun with it also and enjoys playing along with his sister. We keep playing after the first person wins until we are down to the last player so everyone feels like they won either 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th place and have had a chance to fill their entire "log." With such a gap in age I am extremely happy when we score something that is equally fun for all. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for something easy to learn and engaging for younger ones. ... show more

    • Perfect game for non-readers!
Pattern Name: Squirrel Game
I introduced this game to my preschool class and they BEG to play it everyday. So easy, teaches colors, turn taking, aids fine motor skills. If you spin and land on the sneaky, snacky squirrel, you get to take an acorn that you need from another player and if the windstorm blows your acorns away you have to put them back in the tree :( .... cooperative game play (another skill we are working on in preschool!) There is a plastic squirrel "tong" that the kids can use to pick up their acorn and place it in their log, and there are twists along the way ... kids who are behind can spin to receive two acorns and come from behind to win! I would SO much rather play this game with kids than others that take forever and are hard for them. No reading necessary! The spinner has visuals, the kids catch on quickly, and they often beat me! This is my favorite gift to give little kids. ... show more
