Learning Resources Crocodile Hop Floor Game Review/Giveaway CLOSED

#169 Farrah Shumway

 

I love when I can offer my kids board games or floor games that teach them, have them interacting and well something they can have a lot of fun with. Kids can learn from so many different things books, movies, music, games, actually it is endless. Learning I feel should be fun and when you can have something that has them acting out or moving around not only are they learning and having fun but they are also staying active. With my little boy just being in pre-school it is the prefect time to have games in the home that teach colors, shapes, numbers and the ABC's. Plus, a lot of games can still be played after they have learned everything just because they are fun. Learning Resources gave me the chance to review a really fun floor game called the Crocodile Hop!

Crocodile Hop Floor Game which is for ages 3-6 Grades PreK+ and has a value price of $34.99. You simply roll the cubed and cross the river by hopping from color, shape and number. This game engages even the reluctant learners with colorful, versatile super-size floor mat design. It also offers a range of early learning skills: color and shape recognition, numbers and counting (1-10), problem solving and gross motor. While teaching children to follow simple directions. This game can be played alone or in small groups which is nice for kids that don't have brothers and sisters yet or they are simply to little to play with.

My little boy loved this game so much I thought it was so cute that my little girl played with him but then again she is only seven so the game to here looked really fun. Conner had so much fun tossing the dice and the fact that is was so big made it much easier to roll and play with. The graphics on the mat are really nice and has really nice detailing to it. This game is just so easy to set up and play and just as easy to put away back into the box.  It is so funny when he is playing he will want to roll a certain thing and he will keep repeating it and if he gets it, he is so excited and he will jump up and down. With my little boy only being four he loves to play games but the problem is he does not want to just sit and sit and he don't really understand the rules unless it is differently just for his age. Plus, he is at the age where he really wants to interact in the game and with him loving to learn this game is really want we have been looking for. There are so many other great interactive products that aren't just games on there site that I would really love to get for my kids. While Christmas is creeping upon us it will be here faster then we think, this will be a place that I am sure will be on my shopping list of places to go. Here are a few things that I am for sure keeping in mind that I know my kids would love!
