Djeco Animal Domino Game for Kids - 28 Piece Double-Sided Dominoes

This animal domino game for kids puts a puzzle twist on a classic. Instead of matching identical pictures, children join two halves to complete each animal. Flip the pieces over and the reverse side has traditional dots for counting practice. Recommended for ages 3 and up.

Two ways to play

Animal side: Lay the first domino, then take turns extending the line by finding the other half of an animal at either end. If you can't make a match, draw a piece from the pile. The first player to place all their dominoes wins.

Dot side: As counting skills grow, turn the pieces over and play classic dominoes by matching the number of dots. The same box carries children from picture recognition to early numeracy.

Skills it builds

• Visual recognition and matching
• Counting and number sense with the dot side
• Turn-taking and following simple game rules
• Fine motor skills from handling and placing pieces

What's in the box

• 28 double-sided cardboard domino pieces
• Game rules
• Recommended age: 3 years and up

A game that grows with them

Animal Domino is easy enough for preschoolers to play with minimal help, yet the counting side keeps it useful well into the first years of school. The cheerful illustrations keep little ones interested and spark chats about favourite animals. It's a great value gift and a handy game to keep in the car or holiday bag.

Tip: for very young players, lay all the dominoes face up and help them hunt for matching halves together.
