I got this game for my 3 year old..she is just a little too young to play it correctly..all she wanted to do it put the monkeys on the bed & push the bed button until they popped off. Another year & I know she'll love it as intended. I would definitely buy this as a gift for the 4-8 year old range. Very cute & original.

My daughter has been thrilled with this game. It works together well with the rhyme she's almost obsessed with. Takes a while for someone to win, but keeps the kids entertained the whole time. My daughter just laughs and laughs when the monkeys fall off the bed. Even her grandpa played this game with her and enjoyed it. The best thing is that it has very simple rules that she doesn't mind following and bright colors.

3.0 out of 5 stars Boring Except for very young children, October 22, 2009

This review is from: Five Little Monkeys Jumping On The Bed Game (Toy)

I bought this game for the age range child it is designed for - but - it becomes very boring. The tokens you collect become repetitive - pretend to get ready for bed, brush your teeth, put your pj's on, etc. It's all good until you do it for the 10th time and they get thoroughly bored. The monkeys jumping off the bed is the only part they like and they usually get frustrated because it takes too long and just push the button until the bed "jumps" and bounces the monkeys off. I just think it's a lot of money for a game like this when, for the same amount, you can find something much more fun and interesting - even for those who cannot read. It "looks" like it will be fun - but in reality - it becomes boring very quickly.
