orchard toys are fab - we play dotty dinosaurs and have shopping list but not opened it yet.

hiann - why do they learn to cheat so easily? my dd has learnt to cheat the very first time we played dotty dinosaurs (she'd not played board game before) - she doesn't shake the dice but looks in side cup and rolls out carefully so gets the side she wants

We have just opened this after getting it months ago:
Thomas & Friends Windy Day Rescue Board Game: Amazon.co.uk: Toys & Games

Despite the poor reviews, Rhys has been playing it all day! Its not a bad introduction to board games.
I ordered this and it arrived yesturday. Already we have played it 3 times Evan loves it, but he did get a bit stroppy when I won!

Hiann, not a board game but, if I remember rightly Rhys is really into numbers isn't he? My MIL bought Joseph these for Christmas and OMG may as well have not bothered with ANYTHING else he loves them so much, plays with them all the time, on his own, with us, with doggie and zebbie.... Brilliant, we are now playing in Catalan, well to a point seeing as neither of us can count past 10 and I have to keep referring to the dictionary for the translation for the shapes....
