Candy Land Board Game

Bought 2 for my niece and nephew. Ages 4 & 5. Great classic game. I used to play when I was a kid and thought it would as fun for them as it was for me. It definitely was. They both love it. Very easy concept for young ones. I love that it is a fair game and everyone has a chance at winning, you do not need a skill to win. My nephew has an obsession with always winning and being a winner lol, so this also taught him that you can’t always win. Helped teach him that “its okay to lose” in his words lol.

Such a a wonderful game for little ones. We bought Candy Land as a 'first game' for our three year old. She LOVES it. It's so exciting for her to have a game that she can play without any real help and with rules that she can (for the most part) understand. The board has changed since I was a child but it's still very colorful and lots of fun for a family with a young child (or young children) to play. My daughter asks to play it all the time.

The kids are in love with it. I bought it because I loved Candy Land as a child. I do want to buy the old board for nostalgia reasons but this board is still cute. This is ideal for smaller children with shorter attention spans because the game can go pretty quickly at times especially if you get the ice cream card. My 4, 7, and 10 year old play constantly. Gets boring quickly for the bigger kids (7 and 10) and they try to just use it as a play set and pretend they're the gingerbread men visiting the different places on the board. Classic game and I even enjoy playing with them. They have been preferring it to Hi Ho Cherryo HiHo! Cherry-O Game recently though. The bigger kids (and me) like to play with the Jumbo Marvel Cards Marvel Comics the Avengers Assemble Jumbo Playing Cards with Instructions for Multiple Games (Crazy 8's, Go Fish, Rummy, Snap and More). because the different games are more challenging (snap go fish and slap jack are the faves)

I've started my Christmas shopping in September. You can't go wrong with the traditional games like Candy Land even when there are some changes to the "original". I played when I was little, I played with my daughter when she was little and now we will play with my 3 year old grandson. The simple rules, bright colors and fun characters are a winning combination and every version I have purchased over the years has been slightly different. Since I have a long history with the game, I also want to mention that I like the smaller box this came in. I read all of the reviews about thin cards and not being as durable but my grandson is three so I never expect his games to be passed down from generation to generation. If you want a traditional version, make sure to shop around and compare. Candy Land Game

Taking into account that Candyland has terrible structure and random card drawing, this construction of the game is very poor. The cards that you pick to determine how far you move, you know, basically the only thing about the game that matters, are made out of what appears to have less thickness than 2 pieces of regular printer paper. If you have a child, within the first game, cards are going to get bent or crinkled. The board was made small enough to fit into a smaller box, which means it folds more times and goes through more wear and tear. The player pieces are definitely the sturdiest part of the game, which is kind of sad, because they have about 2.3 cents worth of plastic in them. If you have to buy Candyland, and you shouldn't unless you hate yourself, don't buy this version. Unless you're intentionally hoping it becomes unplayable in about 4 run throughs of the game, because all the cards will be crumpled. Which you might want, because Candyland is terrible.

I bought this for my 3 & 2 year olds for Christmas and it was definitely a hit. However, the quality leaves a lot to be desired. The board ripped in half right after our first game when my daughter was folding it. It's not the end of the world because that what duct tape is for but it is annoying. The game is fun and perfect for young kids. It gives them a chance to practice taking turns, counting and practicing colors. My 3 year old son is obsessed. In this version, there is no spinner to find out how far you move ahead. Instead you draw a card that has one or two colored squares indicting how far to move your gingerbread man. Tons of fun.

Great classic game that I had as a child and I bought it for my 3 year old for Christmas! Has plastic gingerbread guy pieces and the cards come in a punch out piece of cardboard. Very easy to set up for the first time and very easy for even a toddler to play! Helps them learn their colors and counting. My son loves this!

Candy land is such a classic game to help teach colors, how to take turns, and rule following. As a concept, the game is 5 stars My 3 year old enjoyed the graphics and the pieces. I knocked off a few stars because they don't make board games like they used to. The board folds into quarters. This means that you frequently need to balance your game piece over a crack, which is frustrating for little hands. The cards needed to be punched out of paper and the cardboard is flimsy. The thickness is comparable to photo paper. I wouldn't mind cutting them out, but the flimsy paper means the pile of cards is easy to tip or even blow over, spills frequently and presents challenges in picking up only one card at a time. I would gladly pay a higher price for a game board and cards like I remember from my own childhood and occasionally see tucked on a toy shelf at someone's house.

Ein tolles Brettspiel was kleine und große Kinder begeistert. Sobald die kleinen Farben zuordnen können kann das Spielen losgehen.

Great game for young children. Not quite as good as the original but I love the gingerbread men counters.

Poor quality

Meu filho tem 3 anos. Gostou do jogo mas ele mesmo de enjoou da dinâmica com pouco tempo de uso. Poderia ter mais atalhos e dinâmica no tabuleiro. O produto também não veio com a roleta indicada na foto mas sim cartas esparsas pra passar pros campos

My daughter and I enjoy this game immensely and have played it for hours. Quality is wonderful! I just wished there were more variations in play and how to make it more difficult as my daughter learned to play it very well. It would be great if there were other ways to play than those listed in the instructions.
