Every family should have this game in their cabinet if they have young children. I just wish they would make games that didn't have so many pieces too lose!

When I was a Speech Therapist, I created cards for our therapy session and after the child responded correctly, they would pick a color card and move their piece. I had 6th graders who enjoyed the game as much as the kindergarten kids. Because anyone can win, it's an opportunity to teach and practice good game skills. Enjoy!

I have fond memories of playing Candyland when I was young. Many hours with my parents and older sister, but it had been a long time since I played it.
I picked this up to play with my daughter and it is just as I remembered it, at least the fun part. Some of the details are a bit hazy so I do not recall the board exactly, and the new board did not really bother me much because I look at it more for the fun.
We are enjoying it together and though it is basic in terms of strategy and the fact it is chance based, it does not detract from the enjoyment and sometimes one or the other wins. It shows the basic concept of taking turns, some skills on colors/matching and overall a good first step game.

This game was something I was anxious for my little cousin to experience since I had such fond memories of playing it as a child. When it was purchased however I was extremely shocked and disappointed by the changes. The gingerbread men had wider bottoms that overlap the board pieces, and the graphics were horrible. My favorite characters like Jolly and Grandma Nut were completely unrecognizable, and Plumpy was nowhere to be found. Plus there was a beaver, where'd he come from? My cousin enjoyed the game but I felt bummed. The nostalgia is just not there with this version. Why are they ruining all the great games with their ugly changes? Maybe it's just me and I focus too much on the looks of things, but the new version just didn't cut it for me.
I suggest buying the retro version from Wal-Mart or an old game board online. My cousin enjoys the older version so much that we rarely use the newer designed board.
