A Keeper
I gave this to my 2.5 year old granddaughter for Christmas. She began playing an abbreviated version of the game. She was entranced. She loves animals. Later she took the game to her preschool where they all played together. The video they filmed is full of squeals of delight. Definitely a winner.

Great Game!
My granddaughter loves this game. She really likes to hide the animals around the house. It is teaching her to remember where she put them.

A wonderful game for Kids 4 years+
As a parent and a teacher, this toy is just amazing! It teaches kids about animals, their habitats, gets them introduced to prepositions( under, below, on,in,etc). In brief, this was so much fun to play with! The set of cards offers fun instructions and my son absolutely loved it! Highly recommended!!!!!!

Such a sweet and fun game!
My 3 and 5 year old boys loved this game. The toys are a perfect little size for them and even enjoyed bringing them to bed. The game can be played two ways: keeping it contained to the play mat, or else involving the house. It reinforces concepts of behind/under, hard/soft, next to/on, colors, vocabulary (window, table, towel, etc.), etc. Directions were clear, and easy to understand.
Two things that were slightly disappointing about the game though, and why it didn't receive an 'excellent' review:
-I wish it had some sort of carrying case for the cards, mat and plush toys. It would be helpful to keep it all together.
-The mat has a strong smell, the way that a vinyl shower curtain does, and knowing there are other materials out there that don't give off the smell--it would have been nice if the makers could have made the mat with a different material. Fortunately, the smell diminishes with time.
Overall, I would recommend this game to a friend.

Fun and Interactive
This game was stimulating for my older daughter as well as my preschool aged son. It has helped my 6 year old in her reading skills and helps with following directions and paying attention to details. It would be nice if the box had a handle for easier transportation.

Nice game for siblings to play together
This game is great for an older sibling who can read to play with younger siblings. They get so excited and watching the teamwork is very cute. My only wish is that there were more cards. When I play with my kids it takes some creativity to keep the game alive once we go through the deck a few times.

fun in many ways
Our three year old grandson loves each element of this very versatile game. When we opened the box, the first thing he did was roll on the zoo map! He loves zoos and it was the first time he had seen a map for one. He has used the very colorful and sturdy mat as a backdrop for free-playing with the included animals, as well as other toys and animals. He loves having us read the cards so that he can follow the directions. The only trouble is that he will not remove the whale and put him anywhere else (desert, jungle, etc.), "because he has to stay in the water"! The animals are well made, bright, and cheery, but the camel looks like a horse.
