Review on Shelby'S Snack Shack: A Preschool Math Game For Family Fun And Learning - Perfect For Kids Ages 3-5 by Brandon Mix

Revainrating 5 out of 5

All around great, family fun. Cutest game ever!

Cutest game ever. It's a counting game sort of like Hi-Ho Cherry-O, but way way cuter. My 3 year old granddaughter will just sit and entertain herself with this by herself. It has like 24 rubber bones (nice weight to them) that you scatter onto the board, which is an enclosed sided box that looks like a beach. Each player has a dog bowl which is made of really heavy, heavy cardboard. I doubt you could smash them if you jumped up and down on them, that's how heavy the cardboard is. I digress. It has a double spinner - you spin one of them to determine one of 3 actions to take, lose bones, pick up bones, or swipe a bone. then spin the second spinner, which is attached to the first one, to find out how many bones to get, lose or swipe. When all of the bones are gone from the beach, the person with the most wins. There is a video to watch that explains it better. The dog Shelby is adorable and she works like big tongs and is easy for little hands to grasp. She's a nice size and works well. It's so adorable, and it goes way faster than Hi-Ho Cherry O so you don't mind playing.

Pros
  • Provides a safe and fun way for kids to learn
Cons
  • May not help children develop spatial awareness or other important skills
