Hasbro Gaming Don't Break the Ice Game

Product Information

This game for preschoolers and kids ages 3 and up is filled with suspense as players take turns tapping out the blocks of ice. Once a player chooses an ice block, they cannot change their mind, and even if other clocks fall as they hammer at their ice blocks they must continue until the clock that was chosen falls.

The remaining blocks surround it and are pressed tightly together so when the tray is turned over all the blocks remain held up. Then IF your platform allows it you can share mouse controls so the student can interact with the game.INDOOR GAME FOR AGES 3+: The object of this game for kids is to keep Phillip the Penguin on top of the ice, but as the game goes on, the ice blocks start falling.

The other day my husband was playing with our two oldest kids; it took a couple of minutes for him to set up the game when he handed our two-year-old the hammer; our two-year-old went to town and destroyed the whole game within five seconds.
