    Educational Insights: Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel Game Review (& Giveaway Ends 10/10)

    By 389 Comments

    ABOUT:

    Educational Insights is a manufacturer of kids products that have an educational value to them. Their products include classroom products, teacher resources, educational toys, and games. All the products are designed by seasoned educators and parents who know that learning needs to be fun to keep kids engaged.

    MY THOUGHTS:

    I am all about games that are not only fun for my husband and I but that we can also play with our boys who are 3 and 4.  Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel is one of those games.  First off, the sturdy box it comes it actually acts as part of the gameboard, which is nice.  There is no money to deal with or cards to read either which makes it perfect for young kids.  The object of the game is to fill your log with all five colored acorns to feed the hungry squirrels in the winter!

    Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel Game

    Be the first to fill your log with delicious acorns and you win!

    Your forest friends are hungry and they need your help! Spin the spinner, squeeze the matching colored acorn with your Squirrel Squeezers, and place it into your log. Be the first to your log with delicious acorns and you win! You could also spin “pick an acorn,” “steal an acorn,” or “lose an acorn,” so be strategic, little squirrel!

    Features:

    • 2 to 4 player game
    • Includes: 1 set of Squirrel Squeezers, 20 colored acorns, 1 game spinner, and game board (doubles as box)
    • Develops matching, sorting, strategic thinking, hand eye coordination, fine motor skills, and per-handwriting skills

    To play the game all you do is give each player a log piece which they have to fill with five acorns, dump all the acorns in the game box and then each player takes turn spinning the spinner to see what their move should be.  The spots on the spinner are relatively simple:  Pick an acorn of a specific color, Pick any 1 acorn, Pick any 2 acorns, Steal an acorn from another player, Skip your turn, and Loose all your acorns.  You use adorable squirrel plastic tweezers, which are very simple and perfect for little hands.

    Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel is a game perfect for preschoolers to develop matching skills, develop fine motor skills, social skills of taking turns and strategic thinking skills.  Kids are not only learning their colors, but learning decision making as they pick which acorn they need and learn good sportsmanship when their turn is skipped.  It really is a cute game perfect for both boys and girls.  My boys love the squirrel tweezers the best!

    BUY IT:  The Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel Game can be purchased for $19.99 from Educational Insights or check out the Store Locator for a store that carries Educational Insights products near you!

    WIN IT: (1) US winner will receive the Sneaky, Snacky Squirrel Game from Educational Insights

      My kids would love that game. My 4 yearold enjoys games that are engaging. We like the Kanoodle product by educational insights that is listed under logic games. Its actually fun for adults and kids

      I think the Number Hunt Game would be great for my home bound student Paul. I work with him every morning and am always looking for new items that would work for him. Thanks.

      My 5yr old has SPD and PDD-NOS, so touching stuff really turns him off. We’ve worked on it in OT some so I think that the Playfoam® Combo 20-Pack would be something else I’d try from educational insights.
