This game is one I was considering buying for my kids last Christmas. Now I wish I had! I"ll be sure to pick it up next time.

In reply to Samantha Lehmann. Samatha, I agree that Blue Orange has some great games. I've never tried Hoot, Hoot, Owl. I'm going to have to investigate! Thanks for sharing.

Oh my! All three of my kids play this together... even at 11. They also play Froggie Boogie, Pengaloo, and the other Blue and Orange game. Also, try Hoot, Hoot, Owl... we have never won. That sun comes up too quickly. I HEART cooperative games... We have a homeschool games club and the kids all really like these games... so funny. Keep it simple is so true. We used this with measuremeant and balancing. It is rather hard, for us 42 year olds.

In reply to Susan Call Hutchison (ReadAloudReadAlong.com). So funny, Susan. I never thought of it as an Easter game, but I guess this would be the season for chicks!

This game has been on our wishlist since Christmas. I think it will be a great teaching tool.

Great! Never thought the word "Boom" would go so well with chicks, but it sure does! Puts some punch into Easter/Spring play. (And Easter definitely deserves to be punched up as a dynamic holiday, with a powerful message.)

I've had this game in my Amazon cart for about a month! I wasn't sure it was a good game for a 4.5 year old. Your review helped. Thanks!

In reply to Amy @ Sunlit Pages. I like it because the rules are so simple and game play doesn't take a long time, so little kids won't get bored. I'm glad you like my monthly feature, I have so many more games in the closet to share!
