 Fun game for kids, tolerable for adults May 18, 2010
Melissa Rensch (Lakeville, MN USA)
I got this as a game for my daughter who just turned 3. She has lots of fun with it. My husband and I can tolerate the game. It's pretty repetitive so I don't recommend playing game after game of it, but it is a good addition to our game closet. The best part is that it has multiple game play levels so it grows with your child. There's a simple version which my daughter picked up right away and a more advanced version for when she gets a little older.
One of the best toys ever May 11, 2010

Love this game so much as a therapy tool for preschoolers that this purchase is an extra, to be saved for the future.
Love it! March 10, 2010
Shannon B (Coppell, TX, US)
This is such a fun game! My son received it as a gift for his third birthday. He knows all of his letters so we were able to play the advanced level. He loves the anticipation of whether or not the ball will be in the slot he chooses. I would highly recommend this game for learning the basics...letters, counting, colors. I hope it will continue to hold his interest...it is more interactive than the classics like Hi Ho Cherry-O or Candyland, etc., so I think we will continue to play and enjoy it.
A Wonderful Game for Non Readers February 10, 2010
K. Groh (Pennsylvania)
Cariboo has lasted for 8 years in our house and has been played over and over.
The object of the game is to pick a card and 'unlock' a flip top door that matches the card. Inside the open door, a bouncy ball may await you! As you take turns opening flip doors, the balls accumulate in a special 'tray'. When the last ball is found and pushed into the tray, the treasure chest opens and the last recipient of a ball is declared the winner.
Children from ages 3 to 6 will love to play this over and over since the placement of the balls changes so each game is a magic hunt. Matching skills include shapes (circle, square, triangle), colors (blue, yellow, green), numbers (one two and three) and beginning letter sounds (A, B, and C). There are multiple options for matching so if a child is not ready for one skill they can always match using something they are familiar with.
It is very simplistic but that is what makes it appealing to younger children. It has movement, playing cards, a magic key and a treasure chest. My kids always wanted to take the 'jewel' out of the treasure chest but it is fixed in place.
A fun game for a parent with a young child.
Very Fun & Educational Game! February 2, 2010
Kenar Edge (Mill Valley, CA USA)
I've been looking for a fun, educational game for my 3 year old and finally found it. My daughter loves it and wants to play it all the time. After only a couple of weeks of playing it, she now knows most of the letters and numbers in the game. I've tried to use puzzles and books for her to learn her numbers & letters but it wasn't until we got the game that she really started to pick them up. I've made the game more fun by sticking different "treasures" in the treasure chest and sirprising her every time. After I did that a number of times, she really wanted to play with the game. It's even fun for adults...not so mind numbing like the rest of the games for 3-4 year olds.
