Our 3.5 year old grandson is not the most competitive little guys, and many of his favorite "games" focus on a corporative goal, such as Peaceable Kingdom Snug as a Bug in a Rug Award Winning Preschool Skills Builder Game . However he does enjoy playing Shopping List Memory Game and delights in "helping" everyone win. He will even remind me or his G-Pop which items we still need to gather and where the card is; often by saying "remember you need the ....." Then pointing to the card's location. Regardless of our grandson's preference for cooperative game play over games a more competitive focus, Shopping List is one of his all time favorite games to play.

They love building the house and then discussing what’s happening to the family in each room. It also includes an activity guide. This includes questions to encourage observation, develop counting and promote imaginative play e.g. How many rooms are there in the house? What food is the doll in the kitchen making? It’s a great puzzle for building kids vocabulary. Orchard Toy Games Best Orchard Toy Games for 5 year olds

Today, Owen and I played "Shopping List" with 3 players, rather than just the two of us. The inclusion of an additional player added a whole new dimension to the memory aspect of the game play that I am quite embarrassed to admit was one which I hadn't quite anticipated would have such a impact on Owen's level of engagement and determination.This is a favourite with our three year old! The game can be used to get children interested in cooking by talking about the different ingredients and utensils, as well as foods from around the world. The addition of the spinner turns Crazy Chefs into a game of chance to see who will cook their meal first! It’s one way we got our three year old to try some noodles!! Smelly Wellies

Like most three year olds, Archie loves anything to do with mud and making a mess so this game appeals to his humour! There are two ways to play this colourful game, for both younger and more advanced players. This means children of all ages can play and enjoy the game together, either as a simple pairs matching or more complex memory game.The patterned welly cards can also be used to encourage children to identify the objects they can see on them. It’s a great matching game to teach turn taking skills.

This is a great game for learning the kids about different food types and what foods are healthy and what are not. Be the first to fill your trolley with all of the items on your shopping list, in Orchard Toys best-selling memory game. Helping a young child learn to exercise an increased level control over their non-cognitive skills such as task persistence, determination, and focused attention is just as important as their acquisition of academic readiness skills -to include those traditionally associated with reading, math and science. I discovered that by adding an additional player, I could encourage the growth in both skills sets. Owen was still expanding both his vocabulary with words like wizard and eggplant and learning to recognize and read common nouns such as milk, bread, and eggs -academic skills- while also gaining control over his newly forming attention skills -non-cognitive skills- and that was a feat worth sharing...
