5.0 out of 5 stars A Huge Hit!, October 30, 2008

I love this game. I bought it for my niece and nephew a while back and since then have given it out as a birthday gift to two of my friend's kids. In all cases, it has been a huge hit, and I've heard that kids keep asking to play this one over and over. They never tire of pretending to be Horton, putting on the Horton mask, and racing around the house to rescue the Whos. Kids particularly think it's hilarious when grown ups put on the Horton mask. Very clever and sweet; perfect for preschoolers.

This review is from: Horton Hears a Who - You to the Rescue (Toy)

I confess, I only bought this game because I needed a Horton costume for my daughter and I saw that the hat would fill the bill. But this has become the most popular game in our house! Everyone from our 3 & 4-year-old to a visiting 13-year-old thinks it is fun. It moves fast, so even the littlest ones can join in. The Horton hat is used to pick up game pieces with velcro, so smaller children can "cheat" and use their hands while bigger ones can be required to pick up the pieces with no hands. My only complaint is that it is hard to keep the scoring chips in their designated place, and some of the younger kids have trouble keeping track of them. But they have too much fun to care who wins!

This is such a fun toy. You hide the little berries around the house and then whoever lands on a berry tile has to wear the horton/elephant hat and find/pick up the berry with the trunk while doing a funny action like crawling or hopping or something. My 3.5 year old son LOVES this! Even my husband had a ball last night playing it with him. The spinner brings back memories of my child hood games and helps the young kids with counting from 1-4. I thought this was a 10 in terms of fun. Another fun game we have from the same company is the Cat in the Hat game. That one is great too.
