I mean, it’s a bright yellow barrel of bright red monkeys. How can you go wrong?! The grands love playing with these! Pieces are easy to grasp for little hands, great to teach strategy, coordination and fine motor skills. Requires no batteries, makes no noise, doesn’t have questionable characters or hints of violence, no tie to social media, no screen time, just old fashioned use your imagination fun. Convenience of scooping them all back into the barrel for storage added in makes this a super inexpensive toy the grands have played with over and over and over. And it’s nice to see them having fun with something I had when I was little (which tells you just how long this game has been around- timeless). Read more
Kids and adults enjoy this for a short time. I remember the barrel of Monkeys from when I was a child. Read more
This game is super simple and easy for small kids to understand. The pieces are also good for littles hands to handle. I was looking for a game to play with my 2.5yrs old and this one works. It really entertains him. The game is compact and easy to pack with is a plus. Good value for what i was looking for! Read more
Classic game. Good quality. Easy to use. Read more
I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 2.5 year old grandson. I didn't expect him to be able to follow the rules exactly because he's younger than the expected playing age, but it has been a great game for us to play together. I only have him use one monkey to pick up another monkey and put them into the 'winner's pile'. He's always very happy after playing this game with me. Read more
This is NOT the original barrel full of monkeys game. Same concept and the monkeys look similar to the original toy but the monkeys arms are offset to the rest of the monkey. This makes them easier to pick up the other monkeys, but I don't believe the original toy was like this. I believe the monkeys would lay flat with the original set. They appear to be about the same size as the original monkey's, but these are much easier to pick up the other monkeys making it easier for the younger kids to use. It comes with 15 monkeys.
