5.0 out of 5 stars Monkeying Around: Our pre-schooler loves it., March 9, 2006

This is a great game for pre-schoolers who don't quite understand the concept of "winning" when it comes to board games. My daughter received this as a gift when she was 3 years old and loved it. Even when she "loses" it's fun for her. She's now four and this game continues to be one of her favorites. She better understands the objectives now and actually tries to think out the placement of the monkeys.

We've given this game as gifts to other pre-schoolers and get good comments from their parents.

My son received this as a gift from a learning supply store when he was four. This toy is a lot of fun, for all ages. We have had kids play it from 4 - 10 and everyone has had a lot of fun and had a great learning experience! I recommend it highly for both boys and girls.

A fun game because of the monkeys. My granddaughter likes to put the monkeys in the lake with the aligators. The spinner doesn't work very well, my only complaint. Sometimes we use a spinner from a different game.
