Product Description
This delightful game is simple and easy to play, even for children who can't read. Fun pictures help kids understand the rewards of doing good deeds as they climb up the ladders-and the consequences of naughty ones as they slide down the chutes. For 2 to 4 players. Game includes: game board, spinner with plastic arrow and 4 pawns with plastic stands.

Be the first to move your child-shaped playing piece from square one to square 100 on the Chutes and Ladders game board--but watch out! If you land on the square that shows you ate too much candy--Ouch!--you get a tummy ache and slide down a chute to a square a few numbers below. But if you end your turn on a good-deed square, such as helping sweep up a mess, you'll be rewarded by a ladder-climb up the board. A fantastic follow-up to Candy Land, Chutes and Ladders is ideal for younger children who are still learning to take turns and just beginning to recognize numbers (the spinner stays in the single digits). It's also a gentle introduction to the higher numbers as players climb to 100 at the top of the board. And, thanks to all those chutes and ladders, it's got enough excitement to keep your 7-year-old on the edge of her seat. English and Spanish instructions are included; no reading is necessary to play. Chutes and Ladders is for two to four players. --Julie Ubben

 Grat, enjoyable learning game! November 3, 2003

I really like Chutes and Ladders for its educational value. It teaches children how to count to 100 and how to take turns. The pictures on the board also show the difference between cause and effect (ie: you break a dish you have to sweep it up). It is also no so very long although if you get caught up in some parts of the board it can drag on a bit. Still a very fun gave to play. Simple, no reading required.
A few problems though. It would be very nice if it was in a plastic case, that way I wouldn't have to keep taping the boxes which always seem to get broken. Also, the maekers used for keeping your place are in two pieces. It consists of a card with a boy/girl on it and a plastic piece to hold it up. I wish it were all one piece so that they wouldn't fall apart all the time when you go to move your marker. That's all though.
I still gave this game 5 stars because these problems that I have named are small compared to the fun that a family can have playing a game together!!!!

I remember playing this game when I was a little girl and I was the only one in my kindergarden class that could count to 100 because of this game. I hate hearing parents complain that younger children can't play this by themselves, get on the floor and play in with them. How else are they supposed to learn? You can't expect them to fiqure it out by themselves. When did parents get so lazy?

My 4 year old girl learned this game about a month ago and just LOVES it. She wakes up and plays first thing in the morning. When my husband or I are busy, she's more than content to play by herself, literally for an hour at a time.
It's very educational. She no longer counts 1-2-3-4 after spinning, but can eye where a "4" spin will put her. She drew an exact replica of the board, carefully writing all the numbers out, and correctly drawing in all the slides and ladders. (Prior to Chutes and Ladders, she could only count to 20.)
She also makes up variations where you go from 100 to 1, or go down the ladders, and up the slides.
My daughter's obsession may just be weird, because her 4 yr old friends do not seem nearly as crazy about it. I assume in a few months her fascination will have exhausted itself. Meanwhile, we have more than gotten our money's worth out of this inexpensive game.

I played this game as a child and with my own children and now I am playing it with my grandson. While some of the graphics have changed slightly it is still the game I remember. My Grandson enjoys it just as much as my sons did and we all have great fun together. In addtion it helps to teach them sharing and waiting in turn. My grandson really loves going down the "slides". I think the classic games of childhood are great ways of bringing the past into the present.
Good ol' fashioned fun! July 6, 1999

Standard kid's roll/move kid's game with fun pictures. Can start kids roleplaying as they progress up the ladders and try to avoid the perilous chutes.
