SmartGames Trucky 3 Wooden Skill-Building Puzzle Game Moving Trucks for Ages 3+

I got this for my four year old daughter in an effort to please both of us---I presented it as a gift from Santa as a castle game since she has fallen princesses hard. I wanted something to challenger her intellectually and reinforce her spatial reasoning skills. Its great for her---she plays with it frequently throughout the day, pausing to build a set at a time and also free plays with it and makes her own castles. I also give it props for not being chokable sized pieces as we have a one year old and many older kid toys arent floor safe. Better quality than I expected and shes getting more use out of it than I expected. Win win!

Jigsaw puzzles are great for kids, but what do you do when your child is ready to move on to something more that will challenge them once again? If you are reading this review, you know the answer. Castle Logix is probably the best puzzle/game that youve never heard of. So simple in concept and yet so thought provoking for your child. The 12 starter challenges use 3 of the 4 blocks, and all 3 of the towers. Your child stacks the blocks to match the picture in the book. 12 junior challenges add the 4th block into the mix. The 12 expert challenges involve balancing the blocks and towers in some way so that they dont fall rather than just stacking them. Finally, the 12 master challenges use the non-painted side of the blocks, forcing your older child to really tax their brain to match up the blocks. For my child, 3&1/2 was the perfect age to start with these. We start with the first challenge each time and build up to the stopping point every time we bring these out, adding a new challenge in the play-session if she is ready. Watching your kid work through and get closer and closer to the solution is just plain awesome. Even if/when they get stuck, you know they are actually exercising their brain because you can see the results as they manipulate the blocks. Castle Logix is durable, portable, enjoyable, doesnt take batteries and will actually help to teach your child how to think and use logic. You will be hard-pressed to find a better toy/gift for a kid in the 3-6 range.

High quality. Puzzles range from easy to difficult. My 4-year-old son can do the easy ones by himself and some of the harder ones with help. My 9-year-old son has enjoyed doing some of the most difficult puzzles.

I used this toy with my students in the spectrum with great success. I recently bought it as a present and the recipient loved it and immediately started to play with it. Great to help exercise problem solving skills in young children.

My 5 year old is enjoying this game! I like watching him think through how to solve the puzzles, make mistakes and figure out how to fix it.

2 yr old boy loves it!

This toy seems simple but can be as challenging as you want and is so much fun! My four year old loves this: it is often a go-to game for us to play together. I feel like it is one of the few things that can make him sit still, concentrate, and finish something. It has also made him more confident/able when we have something else to put together: he now understands the idea of looking at a picture and figuring out how to construct it. Definitely worth the money.

I absolutely love this game. I bought for my 4 year old nephew and 5 year old son. Both of them love playing and it keeps them entertained longer then any other game or toy we have. I did have to sit down and help get them started. They were both overwhelmed when they saw all of the pieces but I helped them do the first couple and they were hooked. I put them on the right path and they both were so proud of themselves when the completed one puzzle and made them want to continue on to the next. If you are looking for something fun and engaging enough to tear your child away from their tablet and use there hands and their brains, I would definitely recommend

It is a little hard for a two year old

I love this product! We have had it for my son for a couple years now and have bought it several times for a gift. It is fun and works on problem solving skills.
