Toys and Games Reviews of Hi Ho Cherry-O
Customer Review: A fun classic!
Summary: 5 Stars
Hi Ho Cherry-O is a game I enjoyed when I was young, and now my son loves it too! It's a great way to teach counting, and also introduce addition and subtraction. If your spinner lands on a picture of cherries, it tells you how many cherries to put in your bucket - 1-4. But watch out for the bird, dog, or bucket! They make you put cherries back on your tree! The first person to get all their cherries in the bucket wins!I have 2 small complaints. The buckets are very tiny and even my 4 year old has a hard time picking the cherries out.
Also the game didn't come with any "extra" cherries, so you'll have to be extra careful not to lose any.
I believe this game will be a family favorite for many years to come.
Customer Review: Nice Educational Game for the Little Ones
Summary: 4 Stars
Oh, how cute those cherries are! If you don't mind green, yellow, purple cherries...this game is great. Very simple for a 2 year old to understand. It comes with a mini rollette. They start by placing the cherries of their color in the tree (via holes on the board). It is up to 4 players. This game teach them how to count, add & subtract; as well as how to take turns. You can also modify the rules so it can be not too frustrating if they land on the "spill basket" which requires them to put back all the cherries they harvested. We tell them to put back 3 instead of everything.
Just make sure your kids are not the one who like to put things in their mouths. Those cherries can be chokers.
Customer Review: Counting and motor skills for young children.
Summary: 5 Stars
As soon as my daughter was interested in counting I started looking for this game. She absolutely loves it.Play is very simple and requires counting skills up to 4 by at least one player. The small cherries can be a problem with children who like to chew on things, but putting them on the tree and then "picking" them helps with finer motor control. The central spinner also helps with motor control (you have to be able to spin it without knocking all the cherries around).
The board is a cardboard insert that has punch out holes for the cherries, built-in baskets of four colors and a central spinner. Being cardboard, it can suffer damage if leaned or sat on, but otherwise it is a good design.
Customer Review: Wonderful First Counting Game For Kids
Summary: 4 Stars
I remember playing Hi Ho Cherry-O as a child. I also remember how much I loved it. When we got this game for our daughter, she immediately took to it. It's a very simple game with easy-to-learn instructions. Simply spin the arrow to determine how many cherries you get to pick from your tree, land on the dog or crow to lose two cherries OR hit the spilled bucket and lose everything. This game teaches basic counting, addition and subtraction in a fun and easy way.
You can pass quite a bit of time playing this game with your young child. Not only will it teach them fundamental skills (emphasis on "fun"), but it will take you back to your own childhood. I highly recommend this game.
Customer Review: Great Game For all Ages!
Summary: 5 Stars
Santa brought this game for my 2 year old daughter. (She will however be three in Feb.) She loves it. The first game was the learning game and she had a tough time putting back her cheeries on the second spilled bucket! But now two weeks later she is a real champ about that! She even 'comforts' her daddy when he spills his bucket!I remembered this game as a child and since my daughter was trying to count everything I thought this game would be good for her. My four year old son loves it too.
It doesn't inluded any extra cherries but there is a way to order 40 more. I plan to prder them nad keep them as extra's for when we lose cherries.. We haven't lost any yet but I am sure it will happpen!
