Title: Lovely drawings and a unique game
Review: I would recommend this game for children who enjoy open ended play and story telling. I bought this for my 3 yr old who loves princess/fairy tales.She was able the grasp how the game works and the pieces are stable enough that you can hold them and pretend play with them when she tells her story. The game is multicultural and has characters from various fairy tales. The drawings are very whimsical and well done. My only complaint was the spinner it is clear so it is hard to see and does not spin as easily on spinners we have on other games.

Title: Great for teaching fairy tale elements
Review: Very helpful / fun activity to introduce elements of fairy tales with 1st graders. In a group of about 10, we created a story from this game / students will fight over who gets to be the princesses etc. of course but it ended up working well to kickstart the unit

Title: Super fun, we’ll made game!
Review: This game is so much fun! We got it in the mail yesterday and my almost 4 year old girl LOVES telling stories, so this is perfect for her. We actually have the eeboo fairytale story cards and she’s had a ton of fun with those, so this was the next natural step. She’s unconsciously learning about the various elements of story while expanding her vocabulary, critical thinking, creativity and communication skills. She’s also learning to listen to other’s stories, take turns and ask the speakers appropriate and relevant questions. This game is perfect for our family of readers and story tellers. If your child loves stories too, I can’t recommend it enough.

Title: Had lots of fun!
Review: We got this game for our 5 year old, and he loves it. It’s a very well designed game, with beautiful, durable pieces, and it’s great at encouraging creativity and silliness (as well as basic gaming skills like taking turns and sharing). We’ll definitely be playing again, and it’s so well made that it will likely last a long time.

Title: Big hit!
Review: I bought this game for my 5 year old niece, and she LOVES it. We play it all the time. To keep it from getting stale, we play by “Auntie Kimmy rules” where anything can be anything: the king can be the rival, the ogre can be the hero, etc. It makes for some fun stories and helps teach her to think outside of the box. It lets my 18mo nephew participate too, since he can help pick out pieces.However, I do have to agree that the spinner is awful. For a game that relies on the spinner almost completely for gameplay, that’s a huge disadvantage. My niece doesn’t seem to mind too much, but she can get frustrated with it after we’ve played a few times in a row. Still, it doesn’t stop her from asking to play almost every day.

Title: Our favorite game!
Review: We have and love many Eeboo games and puzzles, and this is our favorite one yet. The artwork is beautiful as always and my 4 year old girl wants to play this game over and over! After we set up our boards we make up a story based on our pieces and I love how it sparks her creativity!We will continue to buy Eeboo products because we absolutely love them!

Title: A Great Game for Encouraging Literacy Among Young Children
Review: This is not a game. It is an educational activity in game form. My granddaughter and I began by playing it pretty much by the rules and then when she (age 4) told her story, I wrote it down and made her a book based on her very clever dictation. However, now we dispense with the rules and use the figures to continue the story. I jot down the main actions and dialogue and we are off on an adventure of writing a chapter book. My granddaughter (now 5 and in kinder) and I sit for hours telling the story, even including time travel and different realities and 90% of it is her imagination. I type up the pages and we read them and revise. We look for words she has been learning in school and enrich her learning . There are so many “educational toys” out there that claim to teach reading. They don’t. This does if you want to take the time to use it for that. Even if you just write short, one paragraph stories , you can put them in book form and use them the same way. And the great part is that she is doing the leading and she is the one who doesn’t want it to end. It will result in a book that she will have to remember our relationship and how we worked together. I am an early childhood literacy specialist with a Ph.D in Reading, language and Cognition and decades of teaching young children.
