Peaceable Kingdom Feed The Woozle Cooperative Game for 2 to 5 Kids Ages 3+ - Learn Social Skills While Completing Physical Challenges

Great little game to act silly with the kid/s. You can make it easy to okay with kitties or use the spinner to make it challenging fur slightly older kids. Our 3yo has so much fun. This game is on rotation in our house. Helps us model taking turns, waiting, cheering on others, and trying it again if we drop a food token.

This game is great for ages 3 and up. Everyone works together to win which I love about these games!. There are different levels of play which is awesome! It is cleverly made!!

I'm a mommy and a special education teacher, and so I was very excited to discover the Peaceable Kingdom games! (I teach social skills for children with autism.) There is value to playing competitive games, but there is also great value in learning how to work cooperatively towards a shared goal and there are far fewer toy options out there to develop those skills. Needless to say I am always on the lookout for games that foster collaboration, so when I discovered these I purchased some for my classroom and some for my daughters.This review is for Feed the Woozle, which I kept at home to play with my family. It has 3 stages of play, starting at the 3 year age range. My daughter is 2, but we have already started playing with it with a little help from Mommy and Daddy of course.The first level is basic- each player rolls a die to determine how many food items to "feed the woozle" on a large spoon. There is a token reward for each piece that makes it to the woozle's mouth, and the goal is for everyone to collaboratively feed the woozle 12 pieces. The "trick" to the game is placing the woozle a distance away, so the players have to cover the distance balancing the pieces on the spoon. This level helps foster collaborative play (working towards a shared goal), sportsmanship (encouraging others), turn-taking, counting with number recognition and 1-1 correspondence and gross motor skills. This is the level we are currently playing at, and my daughter loves it. After only a few times she is already rolling the die, saying, "Your turn Mommy" and covering the distance to the woozle with her food items in place. Her age obviously requires some assistance with identifying the numbers on the die and counting the food items, but it's a great way for us to practice together. At the moment we are not using the Yummy Cards or setting a specific goal for the number we get in the woozle's mouth, although we will build in complexity over time.The game also comes with a spinner for additional complexity that identifies ways to go across the space to the woozle, such as "March!" or "Hula Dance". There is also a suggestion for playing blindfolded. I can see these being fun options for expansion in the future.I would highly recommend this game and plan on using it as our "birthday party gift" for this year's round of birthdays. As an additional positive note: the pieces are made of a thick cardboard, rather than plastic (with the exception of the spoon and die) and all seem like they will hold up well over time. The colors are bright and engaging, so this game is visually appealing as well as fun to play.

This game is hilariously fun for kids, and adults, of all ages. It is super simple, yet engaging. Highly recommend.

"Hey Mommy, I have an idea. Let's play Feed the Woooooozle!" I hear this sentence from my 3-year-old at least once a day since he received this game for Christmas. Thankfully, it's a short game to play--initial set up and learning the game takes only a few minutes, so we were both able to start playing quickly right out of the box. The object of the game is to feed the Woozle snacks--circular chips with pictures of silly things like "cheesy slipper" and "lemon-flavored underwear" printed on both sides. The chips are sturdy and unless they get wet, will hold up for a long time. The player rolls the die (with results of 1, 2, or 3) and places the specified # of chips in a large spoon that comes with the game. Then, he or she walks across the room, balancing the chips in the spoon, and feeds the snacks into the Woozle's mouth. If this isn't a challenge for your child, there is a spinner to spin before making the short trek to the Woozle, with options like "hula dance" or "walk backward" that offer more excitement and harder game play.It's a cooperative game, where the object is for everyone to feed the Woozle 12 snacks. The Woozle won't eat food that has fallen on the floor, so snacks that do are set aside. The group keeps track of how many snacks the Woozle has eaten using "yummy cards"--one for each snack the Woozle has consumed. For the youngest kids, this is great as there are no hurt feelings or tears. Instead, expect a lot of laughing, kids cheering on other kids, and giggling at the names of the silly snacks.This game helps with learning to take turns, fostering a sense of cooperation, and developing motor skills--gross and fine. It can be a little repetitive for adults, especially if your child is an only child and wants to play as often as mine does, but thankfully it is a short game--usually 10 minutes of gameplay. Feed the Woozle is listed for ages 3-6, but I think that kids up to 9 would probably have a fun time playing it with their younger siblings, since it's so silly.

This is a great board game to teach preschoolers the basics in playing board games and to work on fine and large motor skills. I bought for my grandson's 3rd birthday. The game is designed to build on skills so as he masters one skill he can learn to play the game in a different way to learn new skills. It is a very cute design but I feel that the sturdiness of the board could be better reinforced, considering that the game is made for toddlers/preschooler, and because of that I scored the game 4 out of 5 on the value for the money. But the concept is great and it is cute and attractive design for kids. I bought a 2nd one for my nephew.

Loved it as 5,6,7 year olds So funny and engaging. We don’t always follow the rules!!!

My granddaughter was happy with it for her daughter
