My daughter got this for Christmas when she was not quite two and a half. It's very cute.
There are three game boards (each board has a side with flowers [color game] and a side with shapes [butterfly game]) and two dice to roll, one with colors and the other with shapes.
I wish we had gotten this game earlier; she was a bit old for it at almost two and a half. Obviously, it would need to be put up when adult supervision is not available, because it does have small parts (the dice are maybe 3 times the size of regular dice). Anyway, I think as far as learning colors and shapes my daughter pretty much already knew these by that age. (There are only three shapes- circle triangle and square- and three colors- red, blue and yellow.)
I thought the game was clever and adorable and for the first few times my daughter thought so, too. I think maybe she was just too old for this game. (This will vary a lot on a kid-by-kid basis.)
The only real negative is that I thought the boards could have been a little thicker. They are definitely pretty sturdy, but if stepped on, could get a bit bent up.
This game is GREAT if you are trying to avoid Chinese toys (like we are); this one was made in Germany, I believe.
