Think-ets
This is a great game that will stimulate the imagination of your little ones. It seems simple - just a bunch of “trinkets” but it is incredibly versitile. It comes with instructions for a bunch of different games that are all simple enough for a 3 year old to understand. My son loves to play “what’s missing?” or “make up a story”.

One thing I really like about this game is that it is very small and can be shoved into any bag to be pulled out in an “emergency” to entertain the kids.

    this goes on the list of things to buy next spring for my little guy. He’ll be 2 then and may be able to handle some sort of organized gaming then. This is such a great idea!

    That looks awesome! Wish my kids were old enough to appreciate that type of thing. Maybe I can get it now and save it! Thanks for posting about it!

    That would make a great purse toy to add to my collection!

    My kids would love this! what a great idea. I have enough small trinket toys that I could use them to play “what’s missing” and make up a story games. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Toys like this really spark creativity. Even after you’ve exhausted the instructions, you can let kids make up new games & uses. Thanks for sharing.

    I brought this game to my mom’s for Thanksgiving. There were 2… 60+, 3…. 40+, and 1… 15 year old. We all had a ball playing this game and learned so much about eachother! It’s great to keep in your purse and play while waiting…at the Dr.’s office, at a restaurant, wherever! You can add your own little personal pieces and kids can trade! What an awesome game!!!
