Zicke Zacke Hühnerkacke is the award-winning memory game about a chicken farm. The chickens are all spruced up with a beautiful wooden tail feather, and are keen on plucking these feathers from the other chickens to adorn themselves. The game starts at a great pace: when you turn over a yard tile with the right motif, your chicken hops to the next plate. If your chicken manages to overtake another chicken, it plucks out all of its feathers and puts them on his own tail. This speedy chicken rally is a classic and enthuses not only children. For 2 to 4 Players, Ages 4 and up

Leaves and nuts are hanging from the branches of the high-rising tumble-tree. Like squirrels do in nature, players take these leaves and nuts in autumn in order to stock up on supplies for the winter. On your turn, you open a hole in the forest ground and try to cause the nut to drop from the tree into that hole. Over the course of the game, the forest and meadow holes of the playing area turn from an autumn landscape into a winter scene. Now all squirrels show how well they remember where they hid their nuts. As the nuts are dug out, the snow on the playing area melts away more and more. By the end of the game, spring has come, visible to everybody.   Author: Harald Fecher, Thomas Liesching

Water lets your plants sprout! Drop for drop, the young vegetables come to the sunlight when eager gardeners grab the watering can. It’s exciting to see the water drops rolling into the vegetable bed. Wherever they seep, the soil starts to move. Carrots, cabbage, and pumpkin twist from the ground and become visible. Of course, this also delights greedy snails, that right away stop by the cucumbers. If you know in advance which vegetables will grow where, you’ll be one tip of the watering can ahead when it comes to harvesting. Not only children’s eyes will be amazed by the incredible twisting effect that "lures" the watered vegetables out of the ground. Beethupferl conjures an exciting experience of nature into every child’s room and provides a bountiful harvest of suspense and fun. For 1-4 players, aged 4 and up.   Author: Bernhard Weber

Welcome to an action-packed iceberg party! In this exciting Antarctic adventure, a group of penguins waddle over ice floes and slide down an ice slide as they engage in a fierce battle for the best fishing grounds. Two dice control the action – one for sliding the penguins over the ice, and one for controlling the flow of fish. But watch out! When Wally the whale appears, some of the ice floes break up! If you fall into the sea, you can navigate your way back to the ice via a slide, which has two possible exit points. If you’re lucky, you might be able to grab some extra fish, but if you fall through the hole in the ice, you lose one of your precious fish! The player with the most fish at the end of the game is the winner. Designed for 2-4 players aged 6 and above, “Mein lieber Scholli” is an fun penguin-themed children’s game that is guaranteed to keep young players entertained. The game was designed by the creative duo Anna Oppolzer and Stefan Kloß and illustrated by the award-winning illustrator Gabriela Silveira.   Author: Anna Oppolzer & Stefan Kloß

Da ist der Wurm drin - Das Kartenspiel

601105181

€8.99

The players play worm cards of different lengths face down so that they "disappear into the ground". If you remember the position of your own worms and observe where the other players place their cards, you can now try to pull the longest worms out of the ground - and possibly make mini worms "attractive" to the other players. The player who grows the five longest worms in his own display wins. The card game uses the popular sequences of its big game sister and bestseller DA IST DER WURM DRIN and implements them in a handy card format. Again and again, worms disappear underground and reappear in daylight - which children especially love. DA IST DER WURM DRIN is also an indispensable part of every child's room as a card game. The game was invented by Carmen Kleinert and lovingly illustrated by Heidemarie Rüttinger.

“Das Kleinhorn im Riesenwald” is a magical children’s game that stimulates the imagination and transports the players into a world full of colour and fantasy. Four giants are rushing through the forest to guard unicorns. The colour of the played card indicates which giant moves through the forest. Once the giant reaches a matching unicorn, the unicorn can be collected and guarded. If another unicorn is discovered at the same time and the player also has a matching card in their hand, they can add it to their collection. If you can’t find a matching unicorn in the forest, you can steal one from another player. The player who has collected the most horns at the end of the game is the winner. Designed by Benjamin and Emma Schwer and beautifully illustrated by Michele Cavaloti, “Das Kleinhorn vom Riesenwald” is an entertaining game for the whole family.   Author: Emma & Benjamin Schwer

Ten pairs of animals have hidden in a large three-dimensional bush. But only a few blobs of colour can be seen through the slits between the branches. Look carefully and find out which colours are not there and thus recognise which animals have made themselves invisible behind the thicket at the very bottom of the bush. New animals retreat into this hiding place in each round of the game. Whoever has found out which animals have just hidden in the thicket quickly grabs their wooden figure! As a reward, everyone who is right gets picture cards from which they can put together their own little zoo. "Ist da wer?!" by Zoch is the fun and colourful animal search game about visible and invisible colours. It encourages children's observation, powers of deduction and attention. Author Enrico Feresin came up with it. It was illustrated by Gabriela Silveira.   Author: Enrico Feresin

In the centre of the table are princess, pirate, jester, cook and other playing cards that want to be provided with the matching headdress. Concealed above them, hats are waiting to be uncovered and moved to the correct head. This is done secretly, so that the players have to follow the "invisible" headdresses attentively to notice when a matching head/hat combination has formed somewhere. Those who are not on their guard quickly get a bald head, which only disappears again under a wonder hat. "Auf der Hut" is a fun and accessible card game for children and families and lasts about 20 minutes. It was developed by Alexey Konnov, Alexey Paltsev and Anatoly Shklyarov and lovingly illustrated by Michele Cavaloti.   Author: Alexey Konnov, Alexey Paltsev, Anatoly Shklyarov

In the garden, the worms are on the loose! It’s Anna Annelid’s birthday today. Each of her friends – from the roundworm to the earthworm – wants to present her with the biggest bouquet of flowers. Before sunrise, they all poke their heads out of the soil, trying to find the blossoms in their favorite color. But almost all buds are still closed. When they open up, it should always be the correct worm that crawls out of its hole in the ground! If you know which worm will come out of what hole, you’ll collect flowers in all colors.

Together the players bring cats from the forest back into their baskets. But in the forest it is dark. Blindfolded, a (changing) player leads his walking stick through the rough terrain. The other players use animal voices to guide him to where the cats have lost their way. But any wrong contact can cause disturbing branches to fall to the forest floor. Listen carefully: from which direction is the dog barking, how long does the goat bleat and where does the eagle owl point the way? Only by listening carefully can the cats be brought down from the trees without damaging the treetops. Variants for children from 5 and 6 years of age allow several teams to compare their strength and place higher demands on listening and coordinating their movements. 2-5 players, 4 years up.   Author: Jean-Philippe Mars and Valéry Fourcade

The money is on the planks. And underneath it the sharks are circling. The game is played on a real ship that lies rocking in the waves. All pirates want to get as close as possible to the prey. But if you move the planks, everything gets out of balance. And then it's "man overboard", while the rest of the crew pushes themselves rough-legged from the best seats. It is allowed to jostle. But sensitivity and a clever assessment of gravity are crucial when it comes to taking up the most delicate and lucrative plank places wherever there is something to get. So it's always worth making a fuss over the fuss of a few doubloons ... 2-4 players, 6 years up.   Author: Bernhard Weber

Spinderella All good things come from above … Spinderella lets herself down on a thread with the help of her two spider brothers. Swinging high above the ground, she muddles up the marathon of the forest ants. „Snap" – you can hear it throughout the entire forest when the alert spider girl maneuvers another one of the little fellows back to where he started from. But the ants aren‘t dumb either – they use a hollowed piece of bark for cover. The players try to outdo one another in catching the opposing ants. At the same time, they compete in getting their own cutie-crawlies across the finish line. Spinderella provides playful fledgling spiders and wiry ants with a tingling three-dimensional playing experience in which many a nerve fiber will be hanging by a thread.

Dive into the unique and varied world of kids games

Playing is an activity that is an integral part of childhood. Within the framework of age-appropriate games, kids experience carefree hours full of fun and excitement. Children's board games from Zoch are made to encourage your child in a playful way and to show them the big, varied world of hit games for kids.

What Is the educational relevance of kids games?

From an educational perspective, children's games not only promise fun, but have also earned a permanent place in your child's everyday life for many reasons:

Building and consolidating relationships

Playing together creates the optimal conditions for mutual rapprochement and the development of an interpersonal relationship. It is of secondary importance whether the relationship with children of the same age or with a new adult caregiver is to be strengthened.

Intergenerationality

Many of the board games for kids are not only fun for kids, but also for teenagers and adults. Thus, the games provide cross-generational fun and are an enrichment for family time together.

Useful & inexpensive pastime

Buy once, play again and again: Games for kids are often cheap to buy and promise many hours of exciting play. They are therefore perfect as an inexpensive pastime.

Technology timeout

Hand on heart: How much time does your child spend with digital devices every day? Typically, this is more than a parent would like. Board games for children allow you to offer your child a fun balance to their occupation with PCs, consoles, smartphones, and the like.

Cognitive development

If you want to win, you have to concentrate while playing. Therefore, games for children promote the ability to concentrate and the attention span. They also address logical thinking and perceptual skills.

Promotion of language, reading, and writing

Due to their high promotional effect, games with content that addresses language skills and numerical comprehension are particularly popular. With these products, learning and fun go hand in hand in a harmonious interplay.

Winning & losing

In the game, there are always situations in which your child is confronted with his or her emotions. For example, they are happy about a victory, excited about the big final or angry about a narrow defeat. This is a good opportunity to deal with your emotions in a safe environment.

Rules

Rules are part of life and play a central role at the latest when your child starts school. A kids’ game teaches your child to understand and follow rules in a relaxed, child-friendly way.

Education

Whether it's concentration, language skills, numerical comprehension, reaction speed or social skills: kids’ board games promote your child in numerous important areas and represent a pedagogically valuable employment opportunity.

From what age are kids board games suitable?

That depends on the individual game in every respect. There are games for kids that can be played by kids as young as two years old. These products are characterised by basic rules, stable materials without the risk of injury and a short playing time. Pre-school children, on the other hand, enjoy somewhat more complex games, which, for example, provide supportive content for preparing for school. If a kids’ game is intended for older players from the age of eight or ten, it can be much more challenging – otherwise it quickly becomes boring.

Basically, there are games for kids of all ages, whereby the age recommendation of the manufacturer provides a rough guideline. Our tip: Assess your child's developmental level yourself and judge whether he or she is already capable of handling a particular kids’ game.

What should you look for when buying games for children?

When buying kids’ games or a party game for kids, you should consider these aspects:

Players, duration, and set-up

How many players should you play with, how long can a round last, and is a somewhat complicated structure acceptable? You should think through these factors to find a game that best meets your personal expectations. Also think about the type of game you want to play: for example, should it be a dice game, a card game or a board game for kids?

Variety & learning

Choose a product that covers content that is conducive to learning. Furthermore, variety should not be neglected to keep your child's interest.

Accessories

Are there accessories for the game of your choice? If so, you should find out whether they can be bought separately or are included in the scope of delivery.
