Information
Our SmartKidsPlanet initiative began in 2017 when 3 geeky and dedicated parents saw a gap in the children’s toys and games market. An opportunity was spotted while we struggled to find toys and games for our kids which enriched their minds and guided them toward science, art, math and construction. The trio then knew that their paths were set, establishing an online shop with a comprehensive range of intelligent toys for babies, children and young teenagers.
With offices based in California, our SmartKidsPlanet team enjoys a daily growth in our presence within the children’s educational toys market. We love our new place in life, and we love helping young minds with their growth and skill development, all while having as much fun as possible.
I have very fond memories of playing this as a little child. I was happy to come across this, and see they still made it. I was quick to purchase it. Nothing has changed on it, and operates the same it did 30 years ago. I will say that with age, you would think that it would be much easier to fill the entire shape puzzle by the time the timer ends - but you're wrong. Take away your smug adult confidence, and be a kid again. I would recommend.
Am I going to hell for introducing my children to the anxiety of a ticking timer and the heart stopping terror of the tray flinging pieces of this game at them? Probably.
This was a favorite game as a child, when my kids were kids, and now that they're grown we still play! (Hint: it's a great drinking/party gameüòÅ)
My husband has acquired many perceptual disabilities. His brain is not communicating well with his visual perception. His therapist used this game with him and it was amazing how playing the game contributed to his perceptual ability. The game has the player put a variety of shapes into spaces. There is a timer on the game that can be used as the player becomes more proficient at the task. It was amazing to watch my husband improve at the game. Even though the game might appear to be for a child, this didn't bother my husband who is very motivated to retrain his brain. He has now become proficient at placing the pegs into the appropriate space, and he uses the game just to refresh that skill on an occasional basis. I highly recommend this game to be used by children, young adults, and adults of any age who need to learn or retrain their skill at depth perception and eye to hand motor skills.
Can't even put into words how much fun I have playing this with my grandchildren the fist time I sat down and played with them it took me back to when I was a kid sitting in my childhood home with mom dad and big sister on Christmas morning soon many years ago the flash back memory was worth the money alone not to mention how much fun I still have making new memories with my grandchildren
