  • If the players harvest all the fruit before the raven reaches the orchard, they win together! If the raven gets there first, they lose together. Repetitive play helps teach winning and losing and nurtures little gamers

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great game for toddlers!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter just turned two and we thought this would be a great way to introduce her to playing games. I was so surprised by the quality of the pieces. They are all wooden and very heavy duty. Definitely toddler friendly!! The instructions are very simple and short which makes it the perfect game for a toddler to learn and play. My daughter has wanted to play it every night since we have gotten it!! Highly recommend for those who are looking to play a game with their child. It will help them learn to roll a dice and match the color to the fruits they are putting in the basket.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great game [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] was looking for a present for my younger daughter to begin a fascinating journey into a vast world of board games. And that is the right one! Highly intuitive and engaging gameplay allows to comprehend it instantly and without any language barriers. My children have already played dozens of games with great passion and they still love this game. I think that the key aspect of the game is also the handsome wooden elements. And of course the crow. My daughter used to feed the crow even when it loses the game! This game really worth it! Highly recommended!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from The BEST first game! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been playing this game with my 2.5 year old. It's a nice alternative to traditional preschool games. It helps him learn basic things like taking turns, following directions, counting, sorting, and colors. It also has the added bonus of pretending. The wooden peices are all durable and can withstand a rough preschooler. (Even when he accidentally real bites the pretend apples!) The biggest reason I love this game because there isn't a winner or loser. You either win as a group or lose as a group! I'm extremely satisfied with his first game.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good cooperative game [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted to introduce my two year old to the concept of game rules and a game that our family can play together. Haba First orchard game is a good game to introduce little kids to the concept of cooperative play. I liked that the game setup and concept is easy to follow. Children of all ages as well as adults can play it together. The fruits are made up of wood, and in solid colors. Loved the quality of game pieces, solid and durable. Through this game, the kids can learn about concept of game rules, colors, shapes, taking turns and other social skills. The best part of this game, kids learn cooperation and helping each other to succeed.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Developmental 1st Game! Bought this game for a 1st birthday. It will be used for color matching first. The pieces are solid wood. We have to watch the stems of the fruit because they may be chewed off. I wish the stems were not on the fruit for safety reasons. The fruit would have been just as cute without the stems. Once she gets older & understands the concept of playing a game, then we will use it as it was designed to be used. It is sturdy & a cute 1st board game. My Mother was 100% German so we had German toys when we were young. Gesundheit and danke schön.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great cooperative board game for my 3 year old! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great cooperative board game that we play with our 3 year old. Its simple, games don't last too long and it's all of us versus the Raven who wants to eat our fruit if it reaches the orchard before we pick all of the fruit. We either all win or all lose which is perfect for our toddler not to be singled out. The pieces of fruit all are solid wood and realistic as well which our 1 year old likes to carry around and play with (but too small to play the game).

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful game for toddlers [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an educator and parent, I strongly recommend this game. It is simple, practical, and engaging for toddlers. My son is 2 ½ years old and he was immediately interested in the bright fruit, die, and crow. This game is a wonderful way to start teaching children how to count, wait their turn, color matching, and winning/losing. I love that this game provides a structured activity that practices appropriate social skills for young children. This game instantly became a favorite in our home after a few weeks. As a parent and special education director, I highly recommend this game for young children. It is simple but exceeded my expectations. This game is a perfect way to practice important skills and spend time with your toddler.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this game! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My twins are TWO! They are getting older and want to play games but don't have a huge attention span just yet. This game is fun and they understand and enjoy it. I love the quality of it. The fruit, due and crow are all painted wood. The boards and pieces are a thick cardboard. Colors and images are nice and the premise is simple. We play this game daily and have used the fruit with our play kitchen too. I would definitely recommend this game!
