Grandson loved the noise the wooden dominoes made on the tile floor when he knocked down the line Grandpa had set up. This activity occupied them on and off for the two day visit over the New Year. He can name most of the animals pictured but wasn't ready to play the matching game. They also are great to load into the over-sized dump truck. Maybe this summer he'll be ready for the draw and match game.Sunday, August 24, 2014
PlanToys Animal Domino Reviews
I am a big fan of nicely made children's toys, and this is surely one of them! The pieces are all wooden with colorful animals on them, and they store neatly in a cloth carry sack when it's time to put them away. We bought this game for my 2, almost 3 year old son for Christmas and just got it out today. I had my doubts that he'd be ready for it, but 7 rounds later, I have no doubts left. He caught on during the first game and wanted to keep playing. To be able to play, it is helpful if your child has had practice counting (to aid them in choosing their 5 initial game pieces), and also if they've had some practice with matching (as they will need to be able to look at their pieces to see if any of them match either of the 2 animals currently in play). I would say this is definitely a floor game as the pieces are quite large; I think the growing line of dominoes would quickly become too long for table play. I didn't measure the pieces, but they are each probably about 4-5" tall by 2.5" wide. I think this game will get lots of use at our house and will be a good intro into the real game of dominoes in another few years. Heirloom quality. Great work, Plan Toys! :)
