Great game for kids by S. Hubbs (Fairview, OR United States) 5 Stars
September 10, 2009
My family loves board games and this game is one of our favorites. I almost didn't buy it after I read the reviews, but took the risk anyway, and boy am I glad I did. My 1, 3, and 6 year olds love to play this game. It doesn't take long to set up - only a few minutes to place the leaves in place (and no, they don't have to go on in a specific order). My 3 and 6 year old made a game out of setting the game up, and we used the opportunity to talk about geometry (angles, degrees, triangles, the best leaf placement to get the maximum support). My 1 year old can pull a leaf out and then claps when the bees fall out (just make sure your little one doesn't try to eat any bees!). We came up with different variations of game rules which allows creative game play. Overall, a great purchase.

Too much work! by NaperMom (Naperville, Illinois) 1 Stars

This game takes way too much time to set-up. Poking the long, thin stems through the tiny holes takes forever! The basic idea of this game is the opposite of what preschoolers want to do. They WANT to wake the bees and have them fall in the tray. This game is really only good for teaching basic turn taking.

Cute But Frustrating by Donna Rivera (No. Attleboro, MA) 2 Stars

Takes longer to assemble than play. We've only played it a couple of times, but my 3 and 4 year old don't yet get the strategy. The trays are a little too small and bees tend to bounce out. It's not bad for a quick game, but call the kids in after you've set it up.

Honey Bee Tree by Elaine K. (Washington, DC) 1 Stars

Bought this game for my almost 3 year old grandson and it is way out of his attention span. Too many little parts and not interesting enough for his level. So it when straight to storage hopefully when he is older.It's almost like 'pick up Sticks" only using a tree. At his age they don't get that concept and who has the small motor cordination until much older say 12/13 year olds.

great game by B. Bower (bloomsburg ,pa) 4 Stars

This game is great for kids learning to count. They can count the number of bees that fall when they pull out the leaves. It is a little time consuming putting all the leaves back in the bee hive but over all I would recomend the game.
