Never Has a Board Game Tasted So Sweet

The bright and enticing illustrations on this gameboard immediately attract the eyes of young and old alike. This is a wonderful first game for a toddler. Using colored cards instead of numbered dice, even a three-year-old can figure it out.

Adults will enjoy playing this game with their children as it takes them back to their own childhoods. One look at the gameboard makes me feel sunny all over and I am more than glad to transport myself into this magical fairyland.

There is another game similar to this one which is instead centered in the Hundred Acre wood and has different colored plastic Pooh characters as playing pieces. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of it and I haven't come across it in stores, but it could maybe be found in a shop that sells used toys.

At any rate, far from being hard to find, Candyland is a constant in every store's game section. And the measly seven bucks you pay to take this game home with you will soon be forgotten as you return to this game over and over again.
