Perfect Game for Little Hands and Growing Minds!
T his squirrel game is a huge hit in our house! Itâs super easy for toddlers to learn, and the gameplay is just the right length to hold their attention. Itâs fantastic for building fine motor skillsâusing 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!

Great game for little ones!
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!

Good beginner game!
This game is great for a multitude of reasons! It helps teach taking turns, builds fine motor skills and learning to follow the rules even though you may lose. My two year old loves this game. I highly recommend it

We got this game a few months ago and my 2.5 and 4 year old play it non stop!! So fun and so simple

3 years old and 5 years old boys love it very much. I personally like the game set, the whole board game is so cute and it train their motor skills and patience. Why patient? The reason being, little hands of children have difficulties to grasp the nut with the squirrel handle. So this really train their motor skills.

This game was one of my daughters most coveted this Christmas after watching the YouTube demonstration it was all she would talk about for her Christmas list and she hasn’t been disappointed.This game is fun, colourful and creative but also excellent for young children to develop game skills of taking turns, spinning the wheel and strategy alongside counting, colours and fine motor skills in using the squirrel shaped tongs to select the coloured acorns.My daughter is small for her age and has struggled with the tongs but this is also good for encouraging resilience alongside hand strength and by continuing to try she is more confident and we have had to expand her game selection!For grown ups this game is excellent for reducing chaos of lost bits in that it is self contained and self storing, the box is the game ‘board’ and everything goes back in it without having to align bits of plastic with inner packaging everytime, just scoop and shut the lid, job done.Overall, I’m a fan of Learning Resources products despite their higher price you get quality pieces, this was worth the investment for us and is an excellent choice for the preschooler/reception aged child but wil still get value for older primary aged children as its competitive with the forfeit spins and fun overall.
