Orchard Toys launched a brand new range of games at the beginning of the year and we were sent "Where Do I Live" to try out.
Elliot is a big fan of Orchard Toys and we do have a lot of their games such as the Giant Railway jigsaw. I love the fact that they are perfect for his age group and very educational.
Where Do I Live is aimed at children aged 3-6 and is for 2-4 players. The concept is very simple, it tests your child's memory as they have to match the correct animal to the correct board. The first person to collect all their animals and explorer wins the game.
The game includes:
4 double sided boards
24 animal cards
4 explorer cards
Instruction leaflet
To start the game, each player picks a board and all the cards are placed face down on the floor. The players take it in turn to pick a card. If the card matches the board, they can keep it but if there's no match then the card goes back. It's up to the other players to remember where the card is and if it matches their board so they can pick it up on their next go.
It's a great way for children to learn more about animals because each board features a different habitat such as the ocean, rainforest, desert and polar regions. All the animals on the boards are from that specific habitat. I think Elliot has memorised every animal and where it is from!
What I love about this game is that on the back on the boards you can find fun animal and habitat facts and this is such a great way of teaching children about the world. Kids are like little sponges and I know Elliot especially loves to find out new things about animals.
This game was a bit hit in our house and we've already played it several times since we got it. A must for any little animal fans!
Where Do I Live is available from the Orchard Toys website and has a RRP of £9.50
They look fab! I can't wait until my little one is old enough to play with these types of toys/learning games. She's only 9 months though so I have a while to wait!!! xx
