Matching Game Garden Panic! (wood)

Who hasn’t heard of the game Categories? This must-have family game is timeless and intergenerational, so this family-friendly revisited version is definitely worth checking out! Adults will no longer have the winning edge, due to additional constraints that will make them rack their brains a little harder! Parents... ready to face your children? All bets are off!
The players decide together upon 7 category cards from the possible 40 categories, and place them on the central board. The children will then group together to decide on which constraints to impose on the adults. They choose 3 of these and place them on 3 categories of their choice. The players then draw a letter at random and the family fun begins! All players must find a word for each category that begins with the selected letter. But don’t forget, the adults must also abide by the imposed constraints! The first player to complete their board says STOP! The answers are then compared and points are awarded. The box comprises 24 constraint cards, 4 individual whiteboards, 40 category cards, 4 erasable markers, 1 central board, 26 letter tokens and the instructions (provided only in French). One game lasts around 20 minutes and can be played by 2 to 4 players. Ideal for children aged 6 and over.

If you have young children, then you must have certainly heard of Gaston, the Little Unicorn, who changes colour according to his emotions! And if you haven’t, you soon will! Children love the Little Unicorn as he allows children to better understand their emotions and the importance of knowing how to cope with them. In this game for children aged 3 years and up, Gaston’s emotions are put to the test: children are tasked to do everything they can to rebalance his emotions and help the unicorn live peacefully with both himself and others around him. As children describe the small scenes, they will be able to express their feelings and in turn, become more aware of the emotions that can sometimes overwhelm them. When they have collected the 6 different emotions, Gaston will feel better. 52 “scene” cards, an emotion spinner and a pretty magnetic unicorn with its different-coloured mane pieces will help little ones explore the world of emotions and share their feelings with their family. If all the players have managed to collect the 6 different emotions before Gaston’s mane is completed, the players have won! Breathing and sophrology exercises are included in the booklet to help children master both their breathing and balance. This game comprises 42 magnetic puzzle pieces (for Gaston’s mane), 1 spinner, 1 magnetic silhouette of Gaston with a mane to be assembled, 4 individual game boards, 52 scene sketches and 1 booklet containing 6 breathing exercises and tips for parents. Game only available in French. One game lasts around 15 minutes and can be played by 2 to 4 players.
