 GREAT GAME for kids and adults! January 2, 2009
We got this game for my three year old daughter for Christmas, but my six year old son loves it too. Here's why they like it and we adults as well: fast pace, quick game, easy to learn, no reading required, not too many rules, rules not tedious, fun to push the button and wonder if/when the monkeys will JUMP and whose will fall off the bed/stay on the bed, keeps you in the game even when it's not your turn. Definitely a worthy purchase. You always need another game to take off the shelf to mix things up a bit.
 My 3 year old didn't like it! January 1, 2009
I bought this game based on the other reviews saying how fun it was. We were very disappointed in this game. I agree with the "Disappointed" review, there really is no point to this game. My 3 year old loves to play games, but didn't even want to play this game twice. The game was over before we even went around the board once! The only cute part is when you make the actions of brushing your teeth, going to bed, getting dressed for bed and taking a bath. This is the only reason I gave it two stars instead of one.
This game is going back.

I played this with my 5yr old who kind of liked it. I did not, it was boring; there was no point. Just step around the board, collect tokens, put monkeys on the bed, a moment of anxiety, press the red button, and... nothing, or maybe the bed shakes a little and a monkey falls off. Anyway, I was annoyed enough at this game to write this review.

We really like this game. It's so much fun when the bed bounces up and the monkey's fall off! So far it has worked like it should. It's one of our faves!

My daughter who is 4 and 1/2 enjoys the game. Not sure of the educational value of the game, there is a little counting but that is about it. We still play the game a couple of times a week and it has held up well. I would definitely recommend it for younger children but think my daughter maybe on the upper end of the age group.
