I got this game for my 3 year old son. He tried it twice for about 3 minutes and gave up. It is simply too challenging for this age. I do like it because it teaches new skills, but be carefull as it can also be frustrating for the little ones.

The big dissapointment was the price. After I purchased it from Amazon I found at Target and other stores for 1/2 the Amazon price.

This a nice game that allows a child to play on his or her own. You may also play up to four players. Great deal for the price.

Simple game for small children to grasp and hours of fun for them. It’s a game they can understand easily and set up themselves to play over and over again.

This game is pretty fun. My son really likes it. I read that it was hard to put back into the box and that the fish break easily. I have not had either of these problems. The only problem I have encountered is that I get a little “car sick” from the fish going ’round and ’round while I try to catch them.

My son was two when he got this for Christmas. It says 4 and up on the box,but I thought we’d give it a try. 4 might be the age when they can understand playing it as a game with a winner, but my two-year-old has no problem catching fish on his own.

The first time we took this out of the book, he played it for two solid hours! He loves to catch a fish and then tell you what color he caught and have you catch the same color. We also count them – “How many red fish did you catch? 1-2-3!” He’s taken it to all his grandparents’ houses and played it with anyone who will. He has played it every single day since Christmas.

I deducted one star because the fish are pretty thin plastic and even though we’re careful, it’s only a matter of time until we step on one and break it. It doesn’t come with any extras. Also, for some reason, the box is really tight around the game and putting the game back in the box can cause the fishes’ mouths to pop off (you put them right back on).

Overall, this was one of his favorite toys this Christmas.
