Our daughter is 5 and in Kindergarten and she loves playing this game. It is a nice quick game, but because we love it so much, we can play for an hour or more. (several rounds).Great for teaching the addition/subtraction concepts. Love it.
The plastic figures are durable and cute. Bought this game for my three year old son. He continues to play with it now (age 5) and I can see him continuing to play with it in the future. He enjoys playing with them as well as playing the game. Would recommend as an introduction to math concepts.
My daughter has begun her basic arithmetic, and this game made "studying" fun and relevant. It is also good family time. I highly recommend it for the first grader (or earlier, if that is the case) who is practicing their early math. Too bad the numbers only go up to six (the dice only go to six).
It's a fairly easy game for the 6 year old because you only add and subtract numbers up to 6. I have a 4 and a 6 year old. This is a great game for preschool thru 1st grade. I've thought about getting some 12 sided dice to make it more challenging, however, the board doesn't have that many spaces, so it might make for a very short game. The 4 year old now understand how to add and subtract. I give her pennies to help her count and figure out the answer herself. All in all, I'm very satisfied with this game. The kids love to play it.
My grandson found this game so exciting one just has to say "Sum Swamp," his eyes light up and he is clamoring to play. Watching those little fingers raised for additions and "take-aways," then looking at kids' faces stomped when they run out of fingers---it is difficult for adults to hide their giggles and laughter. He has played it so much with other kids and adults, our family will have to start looking for a more expanded version that will move our grandson to add or subtract higher numbers than what is currently involved in this game. This is truly a great learning game for pre-school and kindergarten children. The game board and the box are made of surprisingly durable material. The animal character pieces used to move over the board are made of good rubber material which help avoid sliding, slipping, and getting easily misplaced.
