5.0 out of 5 stars Great Game for age range, December 22, 2006

This is a great game for the specified age range of 4+. My four year old got this game from "Santa" at a Christmas party. We took it home and played it. Granted it is not educational at all but he LOVED it!! The monster is adorable and the game pieces that go under the bed are a decent size so they do get lost as easily as some other game pieces. There is absolutely NO reading required, only matching pieces to a game board. The winner has to get three in a row like bingo or tic-tac-toe. My seven year old will also play the game with him and it is fun for her as well because you never know when the monster will pop out. If you are looking for a fun, easy board game for a four year old that keeps their interest(which is hard to find)I highly recommend buying this game.

I'm a speech pathologist and I am always looking for ways to teach children an understanding of spatial concepts. The first time I played this game I jumped when the monster popped up, so make sure you warn the children this will happen. I still jump every time, but the kids just love it. This has worked well with my preschool aged children up to 2nd graders, I haven't tried past that age but think 3rd graders would enjoy it too. The kids seem to like trying to predict when the monster will pop up as well as looking at some of the gross things under the bed-a partially eaten sucker, a dirty diaper, etc.. The kids seem to love the gross items! This game encourages children to learn and use concept words in their communication, they just need a boost sometimes. A fun game to play!

3.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining, December 26, 2006

This review is from: Monster Under My Bed (Toy)

We purchased this game for our 5 year old son. My daughter, who is easily frightened, was uneasy while playing the game because of the monster's abrupt arrival. She has only played once. The rest in our family enjoy playing. Assembly was average. The game has a heavy plastic flap that is supposed to cover the bottom of the bed. At times it becomes lodged and disables the monster sensor. Sometimes the monster goes into sleep mode while we're still playing. This is a good game for young children to play independently because it is VERY SIMPLE.
