The POOF-Slinky 0X2590 Mouse Match Memory Game teaches colors and builds memory skills that both parents and preschool children will love. Winner of “Parents” Best Toys Award for 2009, this game involves cute, color-coded mice and pieces of cheese that are sized just right so little hands can move and manipulate them easily. The object of the game is to be the player with the most cheese by matching the color in the mouse"s ears to the color of the cheese in the center of the game board. All the mice are hiding except for one. Chase that little mouse into a mouse hole and another mouse runs out. If it matches the color of cheese in the middle, you get to keep the cheese! The game ends when all the pieces of cheese have been eaten. Whoever collected the most cheese is the winner. The sturdy mouse holes and game board are built to withstand hours of enthusiastic, hands-on fun. This is an educational, charming game that even parents and grandparents will enjoy.
