My three and a half year old son loves this toy. Each time we play the game is different. He likes to find the correct elephants and stack them. He's learning how to build the tower so that it stays balanced. His eight year old sister enjoys the game as well. We purchased extras to give as gifts.

This game is easy to play and can be adapted for different ages. It's fun to see 4 year olds strategize!

Great for toddlers through young children. My son loves animals so he really loves these blocks. Great non-electronic game for kids!

I got this for my two-year old, and she loves it...the colors are bright and the game itself encourages strategizing, and creativity in figuring out the different ways one can balance the blocks. Its great for family time too, and is heartening to see creative games like these instead of the usual tech toys.

The beauty of this game is the short amount of time it takes from beginning to end. My three year old is just learning about games, ie, following rules, taking turns, overall objectives, etc, and Zimbos is a quick and simple way to convey these ideas to the youngest of minds. Zimbo allows for creativity while staying the course of simple concept. Since Christmas day we've played this game several times everyday. To boot, Zimbos is an all wooden game coated with all non-toxic materials!

This is a great game. It is so developmentally appropriate for young children. My 2 and 4 year olds both love it for different reasons. They play at their own developmental levels. The thing I really like about it is how easy it is to just start playing. Very simple directions, so you don't have to study a rule sheet to figure out how to start playing the game in the first place.
Flawless!

This product is so educationa and can be used for a variety of intents. I am a general and special educator as well as speech therapist and I use this toy to target a variety of educational objectives. Wonderful quality and durable. My students love it!

My son is 23 months. I bought this because he was interested in the elephants. It is a great toy. Although we do not play it like a game yet since he is still a bit young to understand. He enjoys building and using the balancing bars that come with the toy. He is understanding balance, spaces and building from this toy. We are thrilled that it is serving more purposes than just counting and colors.
LOVE IT!

I bought this game for my 4 year old twins. They love to play it. It is great to get them thinking about how to balance and a little strategy. I have bought a few of the blue orange games and every one is excellent and a lot of fun to play.

I picked up this game for my 2.5-year-old and it's been a hit. The rules are pretty basic: roll the die and then stack the pieces (cute elephants, a clown, a bear, etc.) according to what you roll.

My son is too young to fully understand the concept of the game, but with my help and instruction, we can get through a short game. It's been really good for teaching him about numbers and balance, and also for teaching the basic concept of taking turns during a game. The hardest part, for him, is following the "directions" that rolling the die gives you. He wants to execute his own stacking plan.

But that makes this game a good toy as well. My son will often ask for "Elephant Game!" just to practice stacking and rolling the die -- it can keep him entertained for quite a long time.

This isn't a game that'll be fun for years and years... I'm sure kids will outgrow it before they enter school. But it's a great introduction to games for little ones, a good starting point.
