What our experts think
A lovely, sociable game, especially for encouraging children to work together and take turns. We found the magnetic board was perfect for little hands and easy to use. Our testers enjoyed it and it quickly led into them finding other things that were not on the board, which was great for developing their observation and recognition skills.
One of our testers made it into a fun competition to see who could find the most objects in an allotted time – they also made it more difficult each time by having the children bunny hop, pigeon step or crawl to each object! This shows great creativity and communication. The children also used the magnets in their literacy – they enjoyed sounding out the words underneath each picture phonetically as well as using the objects they had found to make up a story.
