This was on my four year old’s Christmas list but it turns out his six year old brother likes it more. It’s even a challenge for adults to solve the puzzles! The instructions are terrible, but once you figure out how to play it’s good fun!

My students love this. We use it as a preferred break activity for students who like mazes. It builds so much investment! Putting together the green base is a bit tricky for my students ( 3rd grade) so I have to help. One of the pegs to snap the base together snapped when a student was trying to put it together himself. So now I have the rule of putting the base together. However, this is such a cute way to see students use their problem solving. The solutions are a bit confusing sometimes but we keep it light and fun.

It's a bit tricky for a 4 year old, but I and my grandson have been having fun designing different paths with the pieces. The 'nest is hard to remove because the manufacturer did not consider putting indents or some way to ease removal. The quality is good with bright colors. Playability can be a problem if you have more than one child as it's one player at a time. Watch for little kids as the acorns can be swallowed or stuck in the nose.

I bought this puzzle game for my four-year-old grandson, intending to play it with him. I knew it would be depend on a demonstration of how it all worked together. It’s a colorful board with movable parts so that you can constantly make new routes to follow in order to drop his or her in the nest. Unfortunately, right from the start I had a lot of difficulty getting the squirrel to wind up, and then to get the front wheel lined up with the track before the wind up ran out. This “brake”buttons didn’t help either. The short tracks worked, but when I made a longer track, and or if the track was not completely level, the squirrel never had enough energy to get to the end! With a squirrel delay, my grandson had a good time playing with a little tiny acorns. I tried to help him wind up the squirrel, but his instinct wasto go back-and-forth back-and-forth instead of justbackwards. I wish squirrels had a knob that would wind them up, instead of the rolling backwards, winding up that didn’t really work for us.. I would love to recommend this game, and I will give it another shot and see if I can figure out the secret to making it work right with a four year-old. It is a great problem solving concept., It was just the squirrels that let us down.

Unexpectedly this toy was the favorite!! My grandson is almost 5 and won’t stop playing with it!! I was sorta surprised. He will play with it for 3-4 hours at a time!

This ‘game’ is hard! It’s great for older kids as it comes with puzzles to solve using only so many of the track pieces to achieve the nut into the basket. It’s so simple and great for 10+ to figure out how to get squirrelman to his goal! It’s not super sturdy but good enough for older kids. Also, the squirrel is a pull back & let go, so young kids would probably ruin his mechanical parts real quick. It does come with 2 squirrels & multiple nuts. Great project/game!

The game is interactive and make my baby boy think

It’s a clever idea and, honestly, executed pretty good. The cars operate on a “pull back to wind” mechanism which isn’t optimal, but it works. It does mean the cars can lose speed before the end is reached, but this actually adds to the “logic” component. The tracks go together easily if you figure out the trick (putting two pieces together, then rotating “pairs” together). The critical flaw here is quality control. The set comes with tracks, red pieces for beginning and end, then three colored tiles which drive different behavior: blue, green, and orange. My set was entirely missing the orange set, so I can’t really use those. Without them, you’re limited to right angles which actually does make the set pretty boring. My set actually came with 2 red packs so I suspect that someone grabbed two red baggies, thought “close enough” and kept moving. Because of this quality control issue, I can’t recommend this.

Adorable and fun.

I use this in my counseling office and kids and younger teens LOVE it. It's challenging, yet fun.

My 3-year-old daughter absolutely loved it and was able to solve the puzzles on her own. she enjoyed creating different paths to the basket.

This is very hard for kids at my daycare ended up sending it back they are 3-6 and its too difficult its a cool idea though

A very cute toy for children to play with Grandparents!
