Product description

This adorable version of the classic Candy Land game features gingerbread men as movers, colored cards, and fun illustrations that kids love, with different destinations like Cookie Commons and the chunky Chocolate Mountain.

"Once upon a time, King Kandy, the Imperial Head Bonbon and Grand Jujube of Candy Land disappeared." Thus begins the magical journey of Milton Bradley's classic Candy Land board game. Captivated by the story of a kidnapped king and eager to help find him, little ones move their gingerbread pawns along a rainbow path and through a land of candy characters, all subjects of King Kandy's realm.

Playing cards thoughtfully designed for non-readers are coded with colorful squares matching the jeweled stepping-stone path or an occasional token matching one of the characters' symbols: draw a blue card, move to the nearest blue stepping-stone; draw a snowflake and earn a visit to Queen Frostine's iceberg. There are occasional pitfalls, too: land on the wrong square and you might be stuck in Molasses Swamp until a red card is drawn. With all these enticing, sugarcoated images (and King Kandy plainly visible at path's end), children can't help but be delighted by Candy Land. It's delicious! Instructions are in both Spanish and English. Candy Land is for two to four players) --Julie Ubben

Answer:	Classic in the sense that the game has cards, but updated with the newer character pictures....sexy fairies I guess you would call them. Also a much more "hunky" Duke of Swirl.

Product description

Climb up and slide down in the exciting game of ups and downs, Chutes and Ladders! The Chutes and Ladders board game for girls and boys has been around for over 60 years and has been enjoyed by families for generations. Players can see the square marked 100, but how will they get there? If a player lands their pawn on a good deed, they can shimmy up a ladder, but land on the wrong spot and they'll shoot down a chute! No reading is required to play this simple and easy game for preschoolers. Players spin the spinner to see how many spots they'll move. Will their new spot send them down or move them up, up, up? Slip, slide and see who will win the Chutes and Ladders board game. Hasbro Gaming and all related terms are trademarks of Hasbro.

Be the first to move your child-shaped playing piece from square one to square 100 on the Chutes and Ladders game board--but watch out! If you land on the square that shows you ate too much candy--Ouch!--you get a tummy ache and slide down a chute to a square a few numbers below. But if you end your turn on a good-deed square, such as helping sweep up a mess, you'll be rewarded by a ladder-climb up the board.

A fantastic follow-up to Candy Land, Chutes and Ladders is ideal for younger children who are still learning to take turns and just beginning to recognize numbers (the spinner stays in the single digits). It's also a gentle introduction to the higher numbers as players climb to 100 at the top of the board. And, thanks to all those chutes and ladders, it's got enough excitement to keep your 7-year-old on the edge of her seat. English and Spanish instructions are included; no reading is necessary to play. Chutes and Ladders is for two to four players. --Julie Ubben

From the Manufacturer

It's the exciting up-and-down-again game for little people! Land on ladders, race ahead, but watch out that you don't chute back! Loads of family fun and no reading required so every child can play!

User questions & answers

Question:	How many squares does it have
Answer:	The game board has 100 squares. They are numbered with 100 being at the top.
Question:	Hi there, is this the original game exactly as shown in the image or is it a newer version
Answer:	The box front looks the same as the one I received so it's a newer version. Please take into account that MY original version was in the late 1970s. It's still the same game though. I hope I have helped!
Question:	Will I get the version as shown above, or will I get the newer version? What year was this one manufactured
Answer:	In the Condition section if it states it is another set, see picture it would be different. But I believe this is the same one that I have. I'm sorry but I did not put down what year it is. I will start doing that in the future. Thank you for your inquiry Jeanie
Question:	How many squares does it have
Answer:	It has 100 squares. When you land on a square with a ladder you go up. If you land on a chute your player goes back down. My 5 year old grandson loves it.

Product description

Bring back childhood memories and introduce “the original guessing game” to your kids and grandkids. With the Guess Who? game, each player chooses a mystery character card and then using yes or no questions, they try to figure out the other player's mystery person. This edition features character art and most character names not seen in other editions such as hat-wearing Sam, Amy with glasses, and Al with the big white beard! Challenge opponents to a series of games, or up the challenge by not asking if the mystery person is a boy or a girl until the third turn. The Guess Who? game is a great indoor activity for kids ages 6 and up.

User questions & answers

Question:	What needs to be assembled
Answer:	Nothing really, it's already set up, you just need to slide in the cards into each slot on the board.
Question:	Can you buy different cards to insert like vegetable, animals
Answer:	Yes! I'm not sure about animals or vegetables, but I have seen tons of independent sellers create a different series of cards (often based on a specific theme - like characters from a certain TV show, movie, book, or fictional universe like superheroes or comics)! I'm sure there's ones for cartoon characters - and maybe even just food items and animals! If you have a printer, you could even make your own by cutting the pictures to the right size and gluing them to the cards included in the game box. Heck, even without a printer, you could make a whole activity out of drawing your own cards!
Question:	I thought I remember my son playing this when he was younger than 6. I was planning to get it for my 4 year old grandson. Any thoughts
Answer:	Could be done with a four year old it just may take some time for him to understand and figure it out.
Question:	What is the ratio of male/female, white/bipoc of the characters
Answer:	It’s actually great. The original game only has white characters and 5 women out of 24 characters. This newer version is much better. 14/24 bipoc characters and 11/24 women.

Guess Who? Classic Game

It's the classic Guess Who? game – the original guessing game! Is your person wearing a hat? Does your person have blue eyes? Kids will delight in asking questions about an opponent's mystery character. The first player to guess their opponent’s mystery character correctly, wins the game!

Guess Opponents Mystery Character

This Guess Who? game goes back to the tabletop style boards, styled after the original, rather than handheld boards. Each player chooses a mystery character and then using yes or no questions, they try to figure out the other player’s mystery character. When they think they know who their opponent's mystery character is, they take a guess. If the guess is wrong, that player loses the game! Players can also challenge opponents to a series of games in the Championship Series, where the first player to win 5 games is the Guess Who? champion.

Ask Quick and Clever Questions

Players ask yes-or-no questions about their opponent's card, such as "does your character wear glasses?" If the answer is no, the asker closes the doors on characters with glasses, leaving the remaining possibilities open. If the answer is yes, they close the doors on characters without glasses. This game features characters like David with the red beard, Ashley with the green hat, or Chris with the glasses! Once a player knows their opponent's character, it's time to make a guess. Who will guess right and win the game?

Question:	We found a broken sand-timer when we opened the game. Does anyone know how much time the sand-timer is set for? Thank you
Answer:	I can't confirm what they are made of now, but the game we have that I purchased on Amazon was made of painted wooden tiles.
Question:	Does anyone know how many there are of each mystery item? Some Goldbug items we're able to find 10 (# of magnifying glasses), do they all have

Certain combinations constitute a 'quirkle' some combinations are worth more or less points. The game is quick to play and children can participate since the pieces are matched by color and shape, spelling and vocabulary skills are not required, yet to achieve some high point combinations can be challenging too.
Question:	what age group
Answer:	WE had 5 play with one game so I'm sure with 2 games you could have 8. WE also found that 4 and 5 year olds could play it.

In this edition of the Sorry! game, each player gets 4 pawns (colors may vary) to move around the gameboard. Players need to pick a 1 or a 2 card to get a pawn out of the starting area, and then challenge opponents in this classic game of sweet revenge! It's an unpredictable game of strategy, chance and luck as players chase, race, bump, slide, and score. Be the first player to get all 4 pawns to home base to win. This family board game is a great choice for Family Game Night! For ages 6 and up.

This classic game of luck, strategy, and determination is easy to grasp for children as young as 6 years old, yet it's fun for adults and older siblings too. By drawing cards, players move their game pieces around the board, hoping to eventually accumulate all their pieces at the final destination--home sweet home. Sorry is known as the game of "sweet revenge," since players can send each other's pawns back to the starting line, thus forcing one another to lose ground and begin all over again. This kind of frustration may be hard for children under age 8 to handle. In fact, young ones typically crumble into tears of outrage when their pawns are cavalierly sent back. The only recourse is to teach children how to plot their own revenge, which makes them feel as powerful as superheroes.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this be the original version as pictured or will it be the new "fire and Ice" version? want the old one
Answer:	My 2-yr old absolutely loves this game. She plays the game with us for hours. I bought 5-6 toddler/preschooler board games and no other games could ever have her engaged for that long. She gets confused about two aspects of the game though: 1) she may start looking for objects from a previous turn while undertaking the current Goldbug search; 2) reaching the island does not seem to be her goal of the game - she's too happy to share the food with the pigs.
Question:	Is this better than the 2013 version? I would like to buy the original one but don't understand the difference between the two... Thanks
Answer:	I would say yes. My daughter is 6 and she likes this game.
Question:	Is this game as pictured (i.e. classic sorry with 16 game pieces) or is it the 2013 version with 12 game pieces and some super power discs
Answer:	Actually 2 1/2 year olds love to just drop the checkers into the slots...then when older can learn game.
Question:	Is this going to be the orignial version? Otherwise I will look elsewhere
Answer:	I'm 35, been diagnosed with ADHD since I was 4. The answer: Yes. Unless he's still putting everything in his mouth it should be fine. And he's 10....sooo....

User questions & answers

Question:	How many cards per box and are there expansion packs
Answer:	6 double sided cards (they are boards really, not cards). I haven't seen an expansion pack- you could probably photocopy the board and laminate them though.
Question:	what age group is this for
Answer:	My son loved it around 4-5 but at 7 he has lost interest. He’s on to more complicated games now.
Question:	Since here are images on the tiles, would you say that this game will help little ones learn to read words? I'm afraid they'll just stick to the image
Answer:	Yes, seeing the letters and the picture does help little children learn to read words. You can reinforce the letter-word association by quickly reviewing each tile after the game has ended. Cover either the photo or the letters and ask the child to identify what is covered, but don't let this review detract from the fun of the game. If you take a peek at alphabet books for little children, you will see a picture that begins with the letter on that particular page, helping the child learn the sounds of letters.
Question:	What is the difference between zingo word builder game and thinkfun's what's gnu game? thank you
Answer:	I don't have the game What's Gnu. Based upon the description, they seem very similar. The different seems to be that Zingo Word Builder has three words per card and is played more like a challenge game. What's Gnu seems to be true world building, card by card. I purchased Zingo because I have multiple Zingo games in my classroom. Once the students learned to play one game, they could easily figure out how to play Zingo 1-2-3, Word Builder, Sight Word, etc. Hope this helps.

It's the family favorite HI HO! CHERRY-O board game! Preschoolers can have so much fun picking fruit to fill their baskets, they don’t even realize they’re practicing math skills, such as counting, addition and subtraction. Players choose from two different play options and take turns picking pretend cherries, blueberries, apples and oranges from their tree. If the spinner lands on a bird or a dog players will have to return cherries to their tree. Landing on a spilled bucket means they have to start the game over! Think of the Hi Ho! Cherry-O board game when it comes to a fruity fun way for kids to practice math skills! Hasbro Gaming and all related terms are trademarks of Hasbro.

Round and round she goes. Hi Ho! Cherry-O is the counting game in which players race to be the first to have 10 cherries in their basket. A spin of the arrow determines your fate. It will instruct you to pick one, two, three, or four cherries from your tree and put 'em in your basket. That is, of course, if you don't land on the bird or the dog, requiring you to take two cherries from your basket and return them to the tree. And try not to land on the spilled bucket or--you guessed it--spill the contents of your basket or you start over. --Alison Golder

User questions & answers

Question:	How long do it take to play this game
Answer:	Depends whether or not you play with or without putting the puzzle together. My 5 year old granddaughter and I usually play without doing that part and our games last around 15 minutes including setup. She loves it!!
Question:	Where do you get replacement cherries
Answer:	No idea. But the game in most stores is only $5, probably cheaper than replacement if you can find them.
Question:	What is the 9-piece puzzle for
Answer:	The 9 piece puzzle is the the cooperative version of the game. If you chose to play that version everyone's tree has to be empty before the puzzle is completed or the bird wins and everyone loses. It is in the instructions of the game if you want more details on how to play that version.
Question:	How is this different from the original? It looks like this one has cherries, blueberries, apples and oranges. Are there other differences
Answer:	I can't remember the original game perfectly so I can't be sure, but I think another new feature is a choice between competitive vs cooperative play--all players can play against each other, or play as one team. In that case, it is a race against assembling a bird puzzle. If all fruit is off the trees before the bird puzzle is complete, everyone wins. My young kids (ages 6 and 4) like playing that way best.

User questions & answers

Question:	does this game fit boy age
Answer:	Yes. 6 is a perfect age! We started playing this game with a 6 year old and a 3 year old. The 3 year old, of course, needed help each turn. Our 6 year old, once she understood the rules after the first game, picked out Qwirkles faster than we could. She absolutely loved the challenge. A perfect game that is fun for both young and older minds.
Question:	Would a six year old enjoy this game
Answer:	Yes, expansion packs are available. I have seen listings here on Amazon.com.
Question:	is it okay for a boy with ADHD who is age
Answer:	I think it's 6-8 pieces. When I last played in Sept. it was a large group of us (12) so we broke up in teams of husbands and wives for the 6 playing pieces. It's a fun game.
Question:	Is this item sealed in the box
Answer:	The cards have a list of facts about each item or person. The last clue is always the initials. They are meant to be read in order to the group and anyone can shout out the answer when they think they know it. For example: answer is Hilary Clinton. I was born in 1947.I was governor's wife.I'n not from London, but I have a connection to Chelsea.I became First Lady.I have the initials H. C.Answer is Thailand.I am a country in Southeast Asia.My food is considered spicy.When visiting, you might ride in a tuk-tuk.Anna visited a king here.If you're old, you may know me as Siam.I have the initial T.Answer is Traffic Light.I was invented by Garret Morgan.I am found on nearly every busy street.People sometimes ignore me, but with consequences. I can be computerized.Sometimes I am on a timer.I control the movement of cars.I have three colors.My initials are T. L.I didn't write our all the clues, there are 10 on each card, but I hope this us enough to get an idea of how it works. I wanted to upload pictures, but this page wouldn't allow it. I'll keep trying to figure it out, though.
