Review: GREAT first board game for preschoolers! Fun for adults too - We purchased this game a couple months ago for my 3.5 year old son as his first official board game, and he loves it! I honestly don't mind playing it with him either, and it's even more fun when we get Dad to play, too. I'd love to implement weekly "Family Game Night", and I think this is a great educational game to get the kiddos involved! Synopsis of the game: Each player gets a cardboard "tree trunk" that has 5 little holes in it that have a color surrounding the hole. The object of the game is to get one of each color acorn to fill your tree trunk. Players take turns spinning a wheel that has 5 different colors. You can also land on some other interesting spots on the wheel : - Sad squirrel: pass your turn - Storm: dump all your acorns back into the "tree" - Squirrel thief: steal an acorn from another player - 1: pick any one acorn of your choice from the playing area - 2: pick any two acorns of your choice from the playing area Things I love about this game: - Although designed for preschoolers, I don’t mind playing this game - It reinforces color matching and recognition - Using the squirrel grabber requires some motor skill (pinching motion) - We practice taking turns by passing the squirrel grabber back and forth - Winning the game is based primarily on luck and where the spinner lands; therefore, sometimes my son wins and sometimes I win. In this way, it helps teach that you can’t always win, and you can still have fun and lose the game. We always congratulate the winner when the game is over! - There can be some optional strategy involved regarding what colors to pick and when based on what colors the other players have. I think it’s a little early for my son to learn that, but I’m thinking he’ll learn that when he’s a little older. It’s nice to know that he can keep this game for a while and still grow and learn things from it. CONS: The only thing I don't necessarily care for is that the acorns are small. Which means that I need to make sure all acorns are accounted for so that my 8 month old doesn't happen to find a stray one on the floor and choke! Just keep away from little babies!
Review: Beautiful and clever design! - Beautiful game and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the squirrel! It is thick plastic and looks like it wont crack or get broken easily by rough children. I am using this for ESL preschool and elementary school students. So far I have used this with five to seven-year old students. They all loved the design and got really excited to play. Immediately they started touching everything and made me nervous that they were going to peel off the sticker covering the tree stump. Some students also poked the tree stumps holes and tried to jam the acorns in deeper instead of just setting the acorns in place so I had to tell them to stop or they would've made giant holes or ripped them since they are just made out of card board. Kids are so curious, I guess! So I kind of wish the tree stumps were made of plastic as well, although they look nice made out of card board. I told my students they couldn't use their other hand to place the acorn in the hole and to only use the squirrel--it was actually quite challenging! I could see some children getting frustrated with the squirrel pincher. It is bulky and hard to pick up only the tip of the acorn with, but I like that it is challenging. Since it was hard for even first graders, I cannot imagine how three-year olds would play this and if they would be gently with it, but every child is different so this is just my experience so far! I guess you could allow younger children to use both hands, but then they wouldn't be developing their fine motor skills.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun game for the preschool years 3+
*by B***W on December 30, 2017*

Really simple and fun game. My no-attention-span 3yo will ASK to sit down and play with us. It’s a good game for fine motor skills and a great introduction to taking turns and willingly sharing (handing over the giant squirrel nut picker-upper). It requires guidance but not enough for my LO to become frustrated. It’s pretty sturdy feeling and the ‘logs’ are thinnish plastic that seem like they will survive better than cardboard. It comes with a spinner, 4 logs, plastic acorns in 4 colors and you use the bottom of the box to hold the acorns as you play. You spin to get one or 2 acorns, a specific color acorn, to take one acorn from another player, and lose a turn. I definitely recommend this fun little game for preschoolers and their grownups and I will check out more games from EI! Not for very young kids who might put the acorns in their mouths.
