This Board Games give to us some advantages, like this :
1. 3 yr Old LOOOOVES it
This gift was purchased for a 3 yo's birthday. He is particularly obsessed with "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and sings it ALL day (literally!) thus my search for spider-related gifts. The report from Mom is that he loooooves this game. Although they have not officially played it, he spends quite a bit of time positioning spiders and "washing the spiders out" by sending the marbles down the spout. Mom is looking forward to the counting that can be done with the game as he is entering preschool this year and just learning numbers and counting.

2. Fun idea for a game but very cheaply made
We bought this game for our preschooler for Christmas. It is VERY small. Although our kids were so excited to move spiders up the water spout and have lots of fun playing, it is very cheaply made. I'm afraid to let our preschooler play it alone for fear she will break it. Also the game takes forever. When the water drops fall down they knock your spider off and you have to start all over. You are moving several spiders up to win. When I play I often "cheat" to help the game progess a little quicker. Our older kids can sit long enough to play.

Good game for the money
I bought this to have when my 2 year old grand daughter came to visit. It has enough action to keep her entertained, and the parts are not at all fragile. When she starts to get bored, she will 'freestyle" and just run the marbles through the "spout" and watch the spiders fall down. She also likes to count off the spaces after she spins the dial. Her older sister (5yrs) can play along but is too sophisticated for this game and gets bored right away. This was money well spent.
