Honestly, I wasn't expecting this to interest my kids, but WOW they really got into it. This is such a great learning tool and is great for even kids under 5, as it teaches directional awareness and light programming, plus colors and shapes. My daughters are 3 and 4 years old, and they both LOVE this game. I was also surprised and proud that they grasped the concept mostly. We plan on taking it to their cousins' house and let some older kids try it out. They won't be disappointed!
