I have grandchildren, 3 & 6 yrs old. Will they both be able to play?

My 3 1/2yr old played just fine with me last night. I purchased it thinking he would love it because he like to building "towers". But when I looked at the packaging it suggesting 8 or older I thought maybe the game would be too advanced. He surprised me with some of his crafty moves. I just had to explain to him that the tower had to be balanced. If you have a child who gets frustrated easy this game might be a turn off. As it does tend to fall apart quickly. All in all we built three "towers" last night and he still wanted more.

I gave to my 12 year old son. He plays it with a couple of his friends and they love it. He loan it to his cousins (6 & 8 years) and they had a hard time returning it. They had a lot of fun with it.

I think the 3 yr old will be too small and unsteady to play this game. It's a lot of fun but even adults have trouble making the connections of the pieces. Start the 6 yr old slowly without keeping any type of score.

Yes for the 6 year old, but the 3 year old might need a helper. It's a fun game for kids.

No, the 3 year old would have a lot of trouble. My 3 & 6 year old both like to play Jenga

When I bought it my daughter was 3, she loved it. She loves building things though, so if your grandchildren enjoy that then it should be fun for both ages. I bought another set for 2 6 yr old boys and they love it. I think it's a fun all family game. But I believe the package recommended age is 8

Yes but it might be frustrating for the 3 year old at first. My 6 and 9 year old granddaughters have really enjoyed this game. I personally think it is more suitable for older children, at least 6 years and up.

It really depends how dexterous the 3 yr old is. My 8&9 yr olds love this game but it can be tricky to suspend and have the wire hold on, if nothing else it will build tenacity ;)

I would say probably, the 6 yr. old will have no problem, the 3 yr. old needs to have a little "dexterity" and be able to hang the pieces, it is a balancing act. You know your grandchildren so you have to judge.

I purchased this item for our grandchildren and never saw them play with it so I cannot help you with your question. I am sorry.

I think the youngest appropriate age would be about 5 or 6. My 6 year old nephew played it pretty easily.

I'm not too experienced with children of that age, but I think they would have fun with it. It may be a bit tough, but I played video games at age 6.

I think so, however the youngest I've known to play it is 8. If the 6 yr old grasps instructions well then he should be fine. It's the explanation of various combinations vs. just colour combos that may frustrate him. But there is no reading involved so he may just enjoy it for the combinations and patterns.

I played with my 6 yo just fine. But only used the ships. No special cards and she was fine. Had a blast. She won. :( lol.

yes; I played with my 2 grandkids, and a couple of times one of their parents played with us. I think more can play, but there aren't a huge # of pieces.

Yes. Up to 6 can play but I have only played with 1 other person and it goes well.

My twin grandson's are 3. There are some features they need help with like some of the games but I figured they will enjoy it even longer.

I bought it for my 5 yr old granddaughter (now 6 yrs) and she and her 3 yr old brother play with it. the size suits them very well.

My grand daughters are 3 and 6 and they can fit side by side. But I tell them I can push them higher if they go one at a time LOL! They still love it and play on it every time they sleep over which is every Friday. Your children will love it. Now having said that the fabric will last about 2 summers. I had to patch it last week but will not last much longer.

I honestly don't know---it was a last minute decision for me to buy the game last year and I am not sure if my grandchildren ever really played. Sorrr!

I think it would be. It would be certainly unlike anything they've done and being a little older, they'll get the hang of it quickly and be able to do some fun things that the smaller kids like my 6 and 7 year old grandkids can't.

We bought them for our six, three, and two year old grandchildren. They all mastered them quickly and love them. They keep adding games and use them a lot while traveling. They are sturdy and we have had not problem out of any of them.

My granddaughter got her at 5. But my 3 and 4 year old grandsons play with it too.

Probably. My grandson was a little young for it. I think a six-year-old would love it assimg he/she has imagination and likes to play.

It depends on the child. My grandson and I have played since he was quite little. Also depends on how many hints you want to give.
