what parents are saying
I was so excited to buy this for my 4 year old but I either forgot how hard it was to put together or over the years it’s become cheaply made. Kept falling apart and breaking. (Apr 06, 2022)

This is easy for younger kids to play, but the small pieces tend to get lost. I would recommend putting the game and pieces in a bag or container to keep everything together. Mar 27, 2024

Such a great game to help with motor skills. I feel like it's much quieter than when I was a kid, thank goodness! Feb 25, 2024

OMG we had this as kids and it was so much fun. I will say that these are not as well made and fell apart after the third time playing. So unfortunatelyI cannot recommend as a new purchase. Jan 11, 2024

My kids love to play this game. Too much to put together and breakdown after each play. Br careful with younger kids and the balls they are the size of marbles Jul 11, 2022
- Corinne V.

4 year old loves this. He asked for it for the holidays. The balls are stored in a removable compartment under the toy. He struggles to get that part open, which I consider a positive (no lost pieces) Jun 09, 2022

The marbles are never able to be kept with the game, I am always finding them all over, and I hate that you have to take it apart every time you put it back in the box, it is a pain Jun 14, 2021

This used to be a fun game when I was a child, but it seems like the quality went down a lot the hippos get stuck and you have to realign them so it goes back down. It happens a a lot. Feb 19, 2020

We have this new version. Though it’s smaller and more cheaply made it still works well and accomplished the point of the game, which was to eat all the balls. Our daughter likes it and it’s easy to i Mar 09, 2020

As a child I grew up with this toy. Classic games from your youth are so enjoyable to have in your own playroom. Your kids will have the same great memories that you have Apr 18, 2019

Technically the box says for ages 4 and up but my 3 year old absolutely loves this game! It is easy to set up and take apart to pack up again. The game itself is fun and in my opinion perfect for ages 3 and up! Great introduction to games! Jul 24, 2018
