Orchard Toys shopping list
Best: Overall
Rating: 9/10
Did you know, an Orchard Toys shopping list is sold every five minutes? Observe or play a game and you’ll soon see why. Designed for two to four players, the aim of the game is to fill your trolley or basket first by working through your shopping list and turning over the 32 item cards. It’s incredibly simple but so playful that young ones don’t realise they’re putting their memory skills to the test.
This game inspired plenty of food-related chat from our three and five-year-old testers, and while it was a little challenging for the younger one it was a pleasure to watch them sit and play together, all the while developing vital skills. It’s short and engaging making it the perfect go-to game for siblings or friends aged three to seven years. No wonder it celebrated its 25th anniversary last year.
