Trouble: One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish

What's in the box

• 16 sculpted 3-D fish pegs in four colors
• Pop-O-Matic bubble rolls the die and keeps it from wandering
• Gameboard covered in art from the Dr. Seuss book
• Special spaces: Go Fast, Go Slow, and Sing Like a Ying

How it plays

Pick a school of four fish pegs, press the bubble to roll, and swim your fish from Home around the track. Special spaces — Go Fast, Go Slow, and Sing Like a Ying — shake things up: you might hop ahead a space, send an opponent back one, or have to sing part of a favorite song. First to land all four fish in Finish wins.

Made for kids 5 and up who love the book, this plays with two, three, or four. Setup is quick and the rules are easy, so we like it for playdates, rainy afternoons, and the half hour after dinner.
