Orchard Toys - Shopping List - Review & Competition

As an official Orchard Toys tester we are lucky enough to get our paws on all the new puzzles and games from Orchard Toys. Last week we were sent the new and improved Shopping List game to review. This game is iconic to me so I really couldn't wait for it to arrive.

Included in the box are 2 shopping basket cards, 2 trolly cards, four shopping list cards (I personally love the shopping list which is on the phone!) and lots of mini product cards. Everything is superb quality as is every product from Orchard Toys. For £7.50, it's excellent value for money.

In case you don't know how the game works let me run it by you. Each player has a basket or trolly and a shopping list then take turns in selecting a product card. If the item they select is on their list they add it to their trolly and if not they put it back. Whoever fills theirs first wins! The game is aged 3-7+ and can be played with up to 4 people. 

Although Noah is only 22 months old he still managed to understand to some level and we sort of made our own game too. This is what I love about Orchard Toys, their games can be adapted and they just get better and better as your child gets older.

I cannot praise this game enough. Not only is it fun for all the family but it's also a great educational tool for the kids too, they just aren't aware of it. I can see Nick, Noah and I having years of fun with the Shopping List game.

Orchard Toys - Farmyard Puzzle - Review & Competition

As a Mummy and a blogger there are many brands that I absolutely adore and actively support on social media and Orchard Toys are one of them. We have been working along side them for a while now and are lucky enough to be one of their official testers. 

Orchard Toys specialise in educational toys, puzzles and books which aren't just great aids for learning but are super fun too. They release new products often and we recently received one of their newest puzzles to review.

Farmyard Heads & Tails is a puzzle which is recommend from 18 months. It is a great starter puzzle to introduce to your toddler when you feel they are ready. It's a fun matching game which becomes more and more entertaining as your little one develop their confidence and ability. 

Farmyard Heads & Tails is an easy to understand and quick to learn activity and one that Noah has thoroughly enjoyed. He still needs a lot of help and encouragement when it comes to making a match but puzzles aren't his strong suit just yet. 

There are 12 character cards in total (24 pieces) which is great because it keeps Noah interested which is usually not an easy task considering his short attention span! There are plenty of animals, machinery and even a farmer! Noah's favourite card to find is the tractor and once he spots it he squeals in delight and shouts "Trak tra!" (Which is his new word - he's tractor mad!)

At £7.50 it's a steal because Orchard Toys are products that last. Not only are they great quality and well made but they also last years because each activity grows with your child. I know that Noah will be having fun with this puzzle for years. 

Orchard Toys have been kind enough to offer you guys the chance to win one for yourself. All you need to do to enter is use the Rafflecopter form below, good luck!
