Good game for preschoolers 
by .. W. McKelvie (Tokyo, Japan)
I got this game for my then nearly 4-year-old daughter and a year later she still enjoys playing it. The game is VERY simple and does not require reading. All the parts and pieces are high quality. It's a good opportunity to work with numbers and measuring, plus the game goes fast so you can play it quickly if needed or multiple rounds if you have the time/inclination.
The object is to create the tallest character by mixing/matching 5 parts (feet, legs, body, head, and hat). The character pieces are brightly colored and fun and include: ballerina, doctor, fireman/woman, policeman/woman, cowboy/cowgirl, and a clown. A roll of the die determines which part you select. The die has both pictures and words--except for the WILD side which is printed in red.
After the characters are assembled each player measures with the included ruler (you can choose centimeters or inches) to see whose character is the tallest. It's a sliding ruler with a base so the kids can actually fit their character inside and line up the top with the corresponding number on the ruler.
I wouldn't recommend this game for kids beyond 5--it may be a little too simple. But for 3/4/5's it's a great game.
Great Game!!! by .. Jeanne Molloy ()
This ia a great game for little ones. We have a 2 and a 4 year old who love to play this together, and it's easy for them to play without a grown up. They love the neat ruler used to measure the characters they build. All around a great game. Would make a nice gift.
educational and fun by .. Y. Levi (ohio)
I bought 3 of these games - one for my daughter and 2 as gifts. Everybody gave the game rave reviews.
How Tall Am I by .. Katherine Schiselr ()
I bought this game on a whim and I'm glad I did. It has helped my 3 yr old learn about inches and measuring. He enjoys playing it often, but it only took a couple of games for him to realize what pieces he needed to pick to be the tallest. We have to mix the game up and see who can make the shortest person, or who can make a person who is closed to 10 inches, etc...
The pieces are very durable and it is a simple game to learn for preschool aged kids.
Good game to help them understand measurement by .. Mom of 3 boys (Michigan)
This is a very cute game to help children understand measurement. The pieces are very sturdy and will certainly last forever if care is taken. My boys 5 years old loved the game. I would think it would be appropriate for 3 1/2 to 5 1/2 years old.
