Cute and fun game for kids! I have the Sneaky Snacky Squirrel game as well, but the Bunny is easier for my students to use. The carrots are the perfect size for the bunny tweezer (picker upper).

We are big fans of Shelby’s Snack Shack and Sneaky Squirrel so I knew my kids would love this game! My kids have a slight obsession with rabbits so they were so excited to play this game! The little baskets are so cute and the rabbit squeezer is adorable. I like how the bottom of the box is part of the game so clean up is a breeze. This game is a fun way to teach both my kids (2.5 year old and 4 year old) their colors, work on their fine motor skills and even teaching them to take turns. I am always looking for fun ways for my kids to work on their fine motor skills and this squeezer is a fun way for them to work on it and not even know it! Highly recommend for all toddlers and preschoolers!

I am a speech therapist and I play this game with kids who are a variety of ages and cognitive levels. We use "turns" as rewards for completing tasks. Basically the game play is this: spin a spinner and try to collect one each of the 4 different colors of carrots in your little basket. You use a cute little plastic rabbit to pincer the carrot out of the egg-shaped box. The spinner has other spots (e.g., spin again, steal one from another player, lose all your carrots, pick any color, and lose a turn.) It is similar to Hi Ho Cherry O in that regard, but you need only 4 items and can steal. Kids in the 6-9 age range really like the game and can understand the pictures of "lose a turn" or "steal a carrot from another player" etc. Some younger kids though, do not really. They also can get a little frustrated with the "lose all your carrots" and "steal" space. While I do think it is important that kids understand losing as much as winning, we do modify the game sometimes. I made another spinner with the only 6 spots: 4 colors, a rainbow (choose any color) and a "spin again." They still don't get to choose one if they spin and already have that color, so it isn't a sure thing with each spin, but it does reduce the frustration of losing all of your carrots and reduces say 2 children repeatedly "stealing" from the same other child. I just used an old spinner I had around and fit a new "face" on it that I colored with markers. You could also use a blank die and put the colors plus 2 icons for rainbow and a "spin again" (I used the swirl just like on the original spinner.) They really like the rabbit to pick up the pieces. Some have a little trouble initially figuring out how to manipulate it, but I haven't had anyone aged 4 and up who couldn't figure it out (if they of course, had adequate fine motor skills.) One of the handles had broken off a basket by the second day I had it. The kids like to play with them and put their carrots in and out, etc. And when it is a "steal" turn they try to fit the rabbit paws into another person's basket, which doesn't really work (you just have to pick one out with your fingers.) I just reattached the handle with super glue. Overall it is a simple game that even young children can understand. There is no reading involved (but I suppose you could modify that too with a different spinner or even riddle-type drawing cards if you wanted.) The draw of the game is the cute bunny and the carrots. It is interesting that by about age 7, they really seem to enjoy the "stealing" from another player. Some will laugh these devious little laughs and can figure out who has the color they want and go take it. I usually will say something like "oooh, that bad bunny is stealing" so another student will blame the bunny not the person (because some will actually get mad.) I know my students though so I will usually not choose the "steal" spinner (and use my modified one) if I know a certain student will get upset or angry about it. Anyway, the kids have really liked the game and will ask to play it frequently. For home use, it would be a cute little spring or Easter game suitable for most ages. Older kids probably won't want to play it for hours, but they still enjoy it a few times in a row.

This was an Easter bunny gift for my just-turned-3-year-old. She loves it! We "play carrots" all the time and she is learning the basics of game play, strategy and sportsmanship. She doesn't use the bunny grabber, but I do to model how to use it and she may eventually start. It's a quick game that's not too boring for adults since it moves by fast. (Unlike the unending Candy Land, lol.)

Bought this for some fun during Easter, but it gets played with all the time. It is very durable and visually stunning. I love the sturdiness and look of this product and it has been a hit with my family. Nice and compact size makes for easy storage in the ever growing game closet.

This game is cute and fun and teaches young children to take turns and about colors. The o my thing I dislike is that the basket handles fall off really easy.

This is almost exactly like Sneaky Snacky Squirrel. In my opinion Sneaky Snacky Squirrel is better but this is super fun and is definitely a great starter board game for your kids. My five-year-old still enjoys playing it I'm not sure it would be as much fun for anyone much older than that. We played as a family and it is very impartial to who wins.

My preschoolers love playing this game. It helps with sorting, colors, and counting.
