4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for starting to learn about money, 18 Jan 2007
By M. Khanna (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An excellent game for 5- and 6-year-olds (my daughter, 5, loves it; little brother, 2, loves joining in though the maths is somewhat beyond him!) to help them start to learn to count and add up money. There are only 10p, 20p and 50p coins but that's plenty to get them started with adding up simple amounts in their heads. The game takes maybe 15-20 minutes to play and (as well as being terribly educational) most importantly it's fun!

Like all Orchard games (we've got plenty!) it's simple, well-thought-out and well-made, with nice bright cartoony pictures of familiar things. Recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent value - 4/5 years old, 31 Oct 2007
By Mr. J W "john_w" (Glasgow) - See all my reviews
  
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
We have a number of Orchard Toys, and with the exception of the Greedy Gorilla game, have found them to be of a consistently high quality. Pop to the Shops is no exception. Our 5 year old daughter loves this. It took her a while just to get her read round how the money works, with change etc. but she really took to this game, and its a firm favourite.

The rules are simple to pick up, the board is colourful and encourages them to get involved, and it brings through some good role play for shopkeepers! Can't really think of any minuses!

All in all - very good value, and highly recommended.

2.0 out of 5 stars Educational but not fun., 7 Nov 2008
By debbie8355 "*" (Devon, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
I love Orchard Hill games and we have owned this one for a couple of years but we have found it is too difficult to gain much fun from it.
The games last too long and my children have always lost patience with it before the games end.
The main problem we find is it involves too many throws of the dice to get to each shop and the children often lose track of which direction they should be moving their people markers.
From an educational point of view it is potentially brilliant in the way
each child has to pay for each shop item with the correct coins but the added confusion of matching cards and taking the correct card makes it more hard work than fun. To be honest ny children have much more fun playing shops with a pretend till and counting out correct play money.
I'm all for children learning through play but this game is too difficult for small children and not interesting enough for older children.
Sorry to be a dissenting voice but this is one purchase I regret.

Really good game for my 5 year old, she enjoys trying to remember where the items are. It's a fun way of helping her to learn to concentrate. Good value too.

5.0 out of 5 stars A little complicated, but worth it and lots of fun!
