To get little Izebella in the festive mood, we have been playing our new festive game "Christmas Surprise" from Orchard toys.

In the box are 4 double sided cards and 2 sheets of counters plus a dice. One set of counters have colours on and the others have presents and gifts on. The double sided playing boards have Santa on one side and a Christmas tree on the reverse.

It's a really easy and quick game to play. Izebella got the hang of it immediately. I did not even need to explain to her what she needed to do.
This game is aimed at children ages 3-6 years but in my opinion I think the age could be lowered to 2 years. Big sister Jordanna happily joins in with Izebella to play with her but I think it would be too young for a 6 year old to play it as it is really easy.
It seems a good little game for pre-Christmas. Perhaps something to buy for the school holidays and only costs £9.00 too, direct from Orchard toys.
