We got this for our 3 year old son and he loved hanging the monkeys on the tree. As a young boy, he also loves purposefully knocking the tree top off and starting over. Because of this we have not officially played the game much but it helps us wotk with him on turn taking and playing together. I am sure it is something he will grow into.

My son received this as a gift from a learning supply store when he was four. This toy is a lot of fun, for all ages. We have had kids play it from 4 - 10 and everyone has had a lot of fun and had a great learning experience! I recommend it highly for both boys and girls.

This is a great game for pre-schoolers who don't quite understand the concept of "winning" when it comes to board games. My daughter received this as a gift when she was 3 years old and loved it. Even when she "loses" it's fun for her. She's now four and this game continues to be one of her favorites. She better understands the objectives now and actually tries to think out the placement of the monkeys.

We've given this game as gifts to other pre-schoolers and get good comments from their parents.
