Toys and Games Reviews of Chickyboom
Customer Review: My 6 year old LOVES this - lots of play options
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter picked this out for Hannukah. We brought it to visit her grand aunt in a nursing home and took it out of the box there. She played it endlessly, figuring out new ways to stack and balance the initial set up. She even forced the aunt to participate, which is a big feat.
The game essentially has you stack real wood pieces on a see-saw like board, balance the see-saw they're on, then remove the pieces one at a time without making the see-saw go 'boom'.
Each time my 1st grader (newly 6) removed a piece, she added the points in her head, so there are math skills applicable here as well as elementary physics.
When the adults were done playing, she found all sorts of ways of using the wooden pieces to stack or slide them as she saw fit.
Do note though, that when we introduced it to the larger gang of playmates, the 7 yr old boy intentionally made the parts slide every time, essentially playing to lose and enjoying the noise.
However, the amount and quality of play we've gotten in just a few times was more than worth the price of admission.
