MVFG Animal Upon Animal Jr

The die adds just the right amount of chaos—one roll and suddenly the crocodile is balancing on a penguin’s head. My kids keep begging for "one more round," and the tower wobble makes even me hold my breath. Sturdy little pieces, too, for how much they get grabbed.

My three-year-old loves the suspense of rolling the die to see which animal goes on top next, and the pieces are chunky enough for small hands. It’s surprisingly tricky to keep the crocodile from wobbling the whole tower.

My nephew and I played three rounds before dinner, and the wobbly tower collapse gave us both a good laugh. The animal pieces are chunky enough for small hands, and the die adds just enough luck to keep grown-ups interested. Only wish there were a few more animals to make the stack even taller.
