This review is from: How Tall Am I Game (Toy)

I got this game for my then nearly 4-year-old daughter and a year later she still enjoys playing it. The game is VERY simple and does not require reading. All the parts and pieces are high quality. It's a good opportunity to work with numbers and measuring, plus the game goes fast so you can play it quickly if needed or multiple rounds if you have the time/inclination.

The object is to create the tallest character by mixing/matching 5 parts (feet, legs, body, head, and hat). The character pieces are brightly colored and fun and include: ballerina, doctor, fireman/woman, policeman/woman, cowboy/cowgirl, and a clown. A roll of the die determines which part you select. The die has both pictures and words--except for the WILD side which is printed in red.

After the characters are assembled each player measures with the included ruler (you can choose centimeters or inches) to see whose character is the tallest. It's a sliding ruler with a base so the kids can actually fit their character inside and line up the top with the corresponding number on the ruler.

I wouldn't recommend this game for kids beyond 5--it may be a little too simple. But for 3/4/5's it's a great game.

This ia a great game for little ones. We have a 2 and a 4 year old who love to play this together, and it's easy for them to play without a grown up. They love the neat ruler used to measure the characters they build. All around a great game. Would make a nice gift.
