Winnie the Pooh comes to Candy Land! And you can, too! In this classic family board game, Pooh and his friends have planned a very special picnic in the Hundred Acre Wood. Move them along the Rainbow Path and pick up some yummy treats along the way. Pooh is preparing his specialty: honey-dipped gingerbread cookies! You'll find Tigger with delicious candy canes and Piglet with some sweet gumdrops. But watch out for Rabbit and his wheelbarrow full of peanuts. You don't want to get in his way. Be the first player to reach the picnic and you win! Come along and join the fun! 2 to 4 players. Ages 3 to 6.
Two old favorites often make a winning combination when they are brought together, as is proven here in this Pooh edition of Candy Land. Winnie the Pooh and his friends, Eeyore, Piglet, and Tigger, move along the winding path of the game board, picking up treats for a picnic in the 100 Acre Wood. No reading is required to play. Children draw cards and then use their color-recognition and symbol-matching skills to advance to the appropriate location on the board. Many adults will recognize this classic game from their own childhood and will enjoy sharing it with the kids now in their lives. A.A. Milne's familiar and enduring Pooh characters will ease children into the often-difficult concept of taking turns! --Wendy Slotboom

No counting or reading is required. There are also special cards that can move a player ahead or behind,... more info
pooh candyland game really fast delivery! item just as pictured. thanks so much! a really fun game to play too!
A much-regretted purchase As other reviews indicate, this board has pieces that must be inserted and removed every time the board is brought out. There are several problems with this. The first is that the cardboard inserts quickly become frayed and crushed at the bottom where they are supposed to fit into plastic clips. The clips themselves are like vices and hard to open sufficiently. There is no way small children can set this up by themselves and frankly, it can take an adult so long to get all the pieces together that the... more info
collectors item the colors may be hard for children, but i think parents should keep in mind this game is probably meant to be more for collectors than actual game play.
