Review Highlights:
Great family entertainment! We highly recommend Candy Collections! Upon receiving this game, we couldn't wait to learn the rules and play it. The colorful board is fun and the rules are easy to follow: Candy cards, with different numbers of points, are collected, traded, stolen, and placed in the candy jar until one lucky player gets to scoop them up! We learned that this game was developed by a 10 year old, which was an inspiring trivia fact for my 9 year old. The game is a good distraction from screen time, especially during these strange times, and provides lots of fun to players of varying ages.
The skills learned and practiced in this game are following directions, reading, taking turns, counting, mathematical thinking, logic, strategy, and sportsmanship. I liked that it was engaging with the focus on getting candies. The colors were bright and the game was pretty easy to follow.
