Peaceable Kingdom The Fairy Match Game - an Enchanting Board Game for 2-6 Kids Ages 5+

My daughter is 4 years old and is just starting to get into board games. Most games are too advanced for her, but she loves this game. It’s played as a group so we all try to win together. It’s a fun group game and she absolutely loves it. It’s easy to play and learn for her. She cracks up when she gets “Mr. Winter” and we all go “Oh no, Mr Winter!” If you have a young child looking to get into games this is a great game for young toddlers.

The Fairy Game by Peaceable Kingdom is a cute game! My 3.5 year old really enjoys playing this game. The first day we opened it we played it 6 times in a row and she asks to play it everyday. I don't get sick of it either, which is great for me! my 7 year old son wasn't too excited to play "The fairy Game" at first, but at the end of the game he said, "That was really fun, mom!" Needless to say it is a favorite!The object of this cooperative game is to collect all 4 colored jewels before Mr. Winter freezes the flowers. If Mr. Freeze gets 4 snowflakes on any 1 flower he wins. If you, as a group, can collect all 4 jewels before a flower is frozen then you win! Co-op games have been a really big hit in our family. It's great to play with each other instead of against each other for a change. It has taught them teamwork.For ages 5+ (But my 3.5 year old picked it up just fine. She needed a little more help the first few rounds, but does great now.)2-4 Players15 minutesGame includes:Game board - A nice, sturdy board with cute artwork13 Snowflake tokens - sturdy tokens with a cute snowflake57 Fairy garden cards - 35 fairy, 3 unicorns, 4 wands & 15 mr. winter.

I would recommend this game to my family and friends for their 3-8 year olds!

This is one of our favorite games to play. The object of the game is to collect all the jewels from the flowers and place them in the wand in the center of the board before any of the flowers freeze. You shuffle the cards and each player takes one card at a time from the stack, so each player has their own hand of cards, up to a limit of 5 cards at a time per player (if you already have 5 cards, you have to choose one you already have to discard before picking another card). You collect a jewel by getting 3 fairies of the same color flower and jewel. Unicorn cards allow you to give one of your cards to another player (so if one player has 2 pink fairies and another player has one pink fairy and a unicorn, that person can use their unicorn to give the pink card the the other player so they now have 3 pinks and can collect the pink jewel). Wand cards allow you to remove one snowflake of your choice at any time. Mister Winter cards require you to draw a card from the colored snowflake stack and place a snowflake on the corresponding colored flower. When any flower has 4 snowflakes, the flower is frozen and the game is over. I like this game because, since each player has their own hand of cards, it's a cooperative game in which you are doing more than just taking turns doing the exact same thing as the other players, if that makes sense. Usually we just have 2 players, but we've played with 3 and I've noticed it is more difficult and requires a little more strategy since the cards are spread to more players (like instead of one person getting 2 pinks and the other getting 1 pink and a unicorn, with 3 players, each might have a pink, making it harder to trade and consolidate). I'd imagine 4 players would be even more difficult. But it's still a great game and one of our favorites.

No arguments at all! Family must work together to beat the game. Great for ADHd kids

I bought this for my kids, a boy aged 4.5 and two twin girls just turning 7. They're kind of in that stage where they get upset when they lose. This game encourages everyone working together toward a goal. The instructions are a little convoluted but once you play it a few times everyone catches on. The art is beautiful and the pieces are high quality. Between this one and the mermaid game by the same company, this one is their favorite. They love getting the fairies and especially the unicorns, which makes it a little difficult to give them up (object of the game), but that's more on my kids than the game. When we do lose we just kind of go "oops! Oh well. Want to try again?" and everyone excitedly agrees. No tears or fighting or grumpy walk-offs. For family game night we play this one a bunch of times! I'd go as far as to say I love it. I will be looking into the company's other games as this one was a huge hit and it brought us closer. Thank you for the great product.Tip: make sure you shuffle reeeally well. We learned the hard way that the discard pile usually has a lot less of the helpful cards than the problem cards, and it can cause you to lose in record time without even a chance.
