Toys and Games Reviews of Don't Spill the Beans
Customer Review: I'm spilling the beans...
Summary: 3 Stars
We just purchased this game for our 3 1/2 year old daughter and she got pretty bored with it after a few rounds of placing beans on top of the pot. Explaining how the game works doesn't really matter - she just thinks that if the beans fall on her side, she wins! That alone is priceless.
I like the fact that this game teaches her to wait her turn when she's playing with someone and to only place one bean at a time - for patience. I played with this game as a kid, and it seemed that the entire plastic pot and holder is so much thinner and lighter than 30 years ago. I guess that comes with technology and newer raw materials.
On a scale from 1 to 10, I rate this toy a 5. It has to be a great toy if it's been around for 30 years! Just keep things simple for your little ones - they may not engage in this toy for more than 30 minutes, but it's better than alot of the other games out there for 3 year olds.
Description of Don't Spill the Beans
Be careful...Don't spill the beans! Drop these happy beans one by one into the pot as it wobbles back in forth. Try to balance them, and try not to spill them, because if you do the game is through! Game includes: Bean pot, lid, arms, base, beans and label sheet.For 2 to 4 players.
After a grownup snaps this smiling red plastic bean pot together, it stands 5 inches tall. The trick is for two to four young children to drop beans onto the pot's lid, one by one, without spilling them. The more beans there are, the more care they must take. If--well, actually, when--they upset the balance of the pot, they spill the beans. And naturally everyone squeals and has a good time. The first person to get rid of all their beans is the winner. This is a fun game for young children, and no reading is required to play, but be sure to keep those beans out of reach of kids who are still apt to put things other than real food in their mouths. --Rebecca Hughes
