Children's Game

In the dice game Da ist der Wurm drin, players want to be the first to have their worm poke its head out of the compost heap at the end of the garden.

To set up the game board, attach a smaller game board with two slots in it to the larger game board on which the worms will crawl. The first slot has a row of daisies by it, while the second slot has a row of strawberries. Each player chooses a color, and places the worm head of that color in the appropriate track on the game board.

On a turn, a player rolls the die, then places the appropriately colored worm section into the track holding his worm. The worm sections come in six colors and range from 1 cm to 6 cm long. On any turn, a player can place her daisy (or strawberry) tile above the worm that she thinks will reach the daisies (or strawberries) first. If that worm does indeed poke its head into view through the slot before any other, then that player can add the daisy (or strawberry) tile to her own worm. (Choose wrong, and you discard your tile.)

The first worm to poke its head out from under the far edge of the smaller game board wins. For a longer game, players can keep their worms going until one stretches its head off the edge of the larger game board.

Four Corners is a living puzzle! In this quick, fun, and captivating game, everyone has a different solution, but only the player who best manipulates the board and completes their puzzle will win! Four Corners comes in 2 themed editions: Kaleidoscope and Galaxy.

Lots of busy bees, flying from one flower to the next, in search of nectar to make their delicious honey. In the game Honey, nectar drops are distributed to different flowers; more precisely, the drops are dropped in a tube under each flower. Players have to remember which flower has how much nectar to be able to collect a lot. But even if they are not sure, every time nectar is dropped into a tube they can hear if a drop of nectar falls into an empty tube, or onto few or many other drops, thus giving them an audio clue to lucrative flowers. In a second step they move from flower to flower, collect the drops and try to fill their personal honey jar first, to win the game.

A clever mix of mechanisms and a beautiful 3D set-up, plus audio clues mitigating the memory factor and giving equal chances to kids and their older siblings or parents – all of this makes Honey not only sweet but delicious.

The game of mice and mazes has children scurrying their mice to the opposite side of the playing board. It is not a simple task though, as each player may move their mouse 1 space at a time or decide to install a "blocker" to delay their opponent. Yet the maze that is built may cause delays for every mouse, including their own, as it approaches the finish line.

Quoridor Kid is 7 x 7 as opposed to Quoridor's 9 x 9. In a fine bit of confusion, at least one version of Quoridor Kid retains the name Quoridor while still utilizing the 7 x 7 board.
