High Maintenance Mom

My son received this game for his third birthday. His first reaction was neutral as he had so many other new toys to check out. On the night after his birthday, we played with him not realizing that we were going to be playing it ever day since then (over a month)... It's been a huge hit and I've been recommending it to all my friends.

The game comes with ten elephants, five non-elephants, and three bars that stack. To play, you roll a die to determine what to stack. There are circles representing one, two, or three elephants, or a star representing a bar or non-elephant piece. The pieces stack on top of each other either right-side-up or upside-down. The directions tell you to stack the elephants from one to ten with winner being the player who stacks the number ten elephant. We play until everything has been stacked. I've tried other "classic" games since his birthday without much success. Unlike the other games we've tried, this one is easy enough to figure out and interesting enough to play again and again.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. If you are interested, you can order it from UnclesGames.com by clicking on the image of the game above.
