Gruffalo | The Gruffalo Games from the Deep Dark Wood | 4 in 1 Card Game | Great Gift For Kids, Ages 4+

This was for my granddaughter for Christmas. She was delighted with the games as she loved the book.

Bought as a present for my grandson who absolutely loves it. So does his mum and dad after a hard day with home lessons. Well worth buying for fans of the Grafallo.

Great game to play with little ones. Simple but fun

Gruffalo Games from the Deep Dark Wood4* "He has Purple Prickles All Over his Back"This is a collection of 4 card based, turn taking, fun games that can be played quickly and by children of all ages but are obviously aimed towards younger family members. Each game will take about 10 minutes to finish, are for ages 4+ and take seconds to become familiar with.The breakdown of these games is as follows:"The Deep Dark Wood" Each player is dealt 6 cards each and the object is to match your cards on a trip through the woods. First player to use all their cards wins."What's a Gruffalo?" A play on go fish where players have to try and match their tiles to those in the draw pile. The first to find all their gruffalo tiles and correctly build their gruffalo picture wins."His Eyes Are Orange" Match a set of 3 cards to create phrases from the book and scare off the animals by reading them out. Each phrase earns a mouse token and 5 tokens wins the game."Oh Help, Oh no" A slightly more complex game which involves making a woodland scene from cards and hiding your mouse tokens amongst it. If you can avoid your mouse tokens being discovered, you are the winner.Once again these games are aimed at younger children but can be enjoyed by the whole family. Our 4 year old loved all the games and wanted to play each one over several times. The games are simple and could possibly be a little more complex but this would spoil the fun for little ones. The box is also really quite big for the relatively meagre contents but on the whole this is a good product.

This set of four games provides the kids with entertainment for hours!Its a big box for the actual content inside, but good use of equipment with a double sided game board, tokens and cards. All used in different combinations for each of the games. Could be a bit more economical with space saving - to save room on my already jam packed games shelves!Games follow theme of traditional games such as dominoes, but using cards with the Gruffalo characters.Good, easy to follow instructions for each game.

I'm conflicted about this. On one hand, it is very disappointing when you open the box to find what your £25 buys you - a deck of cards and a few more bits of card. This is a definite cash in on the brand.On the other hand, the games are really quite fun, and kept us entertained for a good few hours. For example, one game is basically dominoes, but a great version of it with the gruffalo designs on the cards.Overall, I think there are better value games out there, but this is an easy win for a gruffalo fan.

This was delivered by Parcel Force in an Amazon branded box .The Gruffalo has many fans and he's one little boys absolute favourite . When I saw this I knew I had to get it . 4 games in one it's going to be well used and loved .The first game is like Dominoes but with cards each card has two pictures on it and the remaining cards have to be placed with the same images . This game is The Deep Dark wood .The other 3 games are : what's a Gruffalo ?His eyes are Orange and oh help! Oh no!Directed at children aged 4 and above these games are educational as well as fun .Priced at £24.99 it's good value for money too and as a parent , grandparent aunt or uncle you'll be the best if you buy this as a present for your little one .

Another item which is overpriced but you pay for the branding “Gruffalo”You will open the box and think oh my god I paid that amount of money for a bit of card but you do get 4 different games and to be fair they are good family games, we have used these on a couple of occasions and all of my children (young and old) enjoyed playing the games.They are suitable for children over 3 years old and for 2 to 4 players they are quick fun games and really easy to play and you get some really good instructions included.I love the fact there is not loads of tiny bits and it don’t take long to tidy up and the bonus is it’s one box with 4 different games in.The only thing which would put me off was the price.
