Spin Master Games Sink N’ Sand, Quicksand Kids Board Game with Kinetic Sand for Sensory Fun and Learning – Easy Toy Gift Idea, for Preschoolers and Kids Ages 4 and up

What a great game. Easy to assemble. Kids 4-11 and adults really enjoyed it. Easy concept.

Received it on time and exactly as described. Package came in excellent condition. My son can’t wait to gift this board game to his 8yo friend and play together. He says it seems such a silly and funny game to play with. Seems appropriate for kid ages. Will definitely buy again from this vendor and product seems good quality for the paid money. Expect hours of fun for kids.

This game has been a life saver during rain season here in the SE. My son loves it! My husband even doesn't mind it. Being kinetic sand, it's easy to pick that stuff up and reform (if you have some, you know lol). So setup doesn't take long between games, either. This stuff is also super easy to vacuum if it does stray and easily replaceable with any other extra kinetic sand you have. It's preferred over the clean up of playdough if some strays and you don't find it.. stuck in a piece of carpet forever.. this stuff will still vacuum a week later without problem. But not only is it fun, the kid has to pay attention to the color they picked/pulling, when setting up, they have to align the sticks to the right holes, they have to strategize which stick they pull so they don't knock their person down. It has some small learning points in there, too! So, not just for fun, if you're worried about that. Not the basic ABC but more of the physical/kinetic type of learning. BTW, my son is 4, and it's completely suitable for his age.

This game was a hit right out of the box. The silly concept and banana-scented dough got a lot of laughs during our first few rounds, and it was easy enough for my younger child to join in with minimal help.That said, the excitement wore off pretty fast. After a couple of play sessions, my son lost interest, and it hasn’t been pulled out since. It’s still a fun party game or icebreaker, but probably not something kids will keep coming back to over and over.

My 6 year old LOVES it!

Kids love this set.

My 3yr old and her father and I all LOVE this game! The sand is kinetic sand but seems to have just a little bit more of a stronger hold so the sand doesn't start falling too quickly. I really recommend this game. Its really alot of fun. My daughter got about 10 games for christmas (yeah, I know) and this has been the favorite for all of us.Ok so, you start by putting the different colored sticks in randomly.- Take the small ruby and push it into the sand and knead/mix the sand so you don't know where the ruby is.- Next put the sand on top of the sticks and spread it around evenly and try not to expose the ruby.- Take the grid design and place it on the sand and press firmly so that it transfers the pattern to the sand.- Each player selects the colored person they want and you roll the die to see what symbol you get and can choose whichever spot with that symbol is available and place your person into the sand enough so that it stands.- After everyone has their spots its time to play. Now the symbols don't matter just the color that it is you rolled, and whatever color it is you pull any stick of that color out.-Now there is a monkey symbol you can roll and when you do you take the "meddling monkey" piece and you place it on the back of another players person of your choice. Each time someone rolls the monkey they can choose to move it to another player or leave it on the same person. (HINT: you don't want the monkey....it makes you sink faster.*-* DONT FORGET to pay attention and watch for that ruby to drop and when it does whoever who sees it and grabs it first gets a redemption or 2nd life. So if and when they fall they can place their person back on top 1 time.*Last one standing is the winner!

My kids really enjoy this game. We learned about it from our OT It helps with fine motor, and helps with frustration tolerance. Turn taking, color matching, shape matching, strategy. The box is slightly larger than it needs to be so I don't like that the items bang around. I'm worried the cover will dislodge from the sand box. One thing they could have done better is included a small amount of extra sand. If you have kinetic sand this is easily remedied. If you lose some to the vacuum, then you wont have enough for making the impressions or holding up the characters and the game will be over sooner or slightly more frustrating than it has to be. My kids have played it several times now. So replay has been good.
