Every child is unique and has their own preferences when it comes to toys and how they perceive them. However, I have been impressed that my -3 year old- son has been playing with this particular game for a long time, almost on a daily basis, without getting bored. We started with the mode with the basic cards that are aimed at ages 3+, but quickly moved on to the mode with the special cards (ages: 5+). He easily plays the second mode as well, and often, when he plays with his grandmother, who is not familiar with the game, he explains the rules to her clearly.

Based on the above, I am considering getting the Chicco Balloon and Chicco Playroom at some point and see how well they are received, even though they have different mechanics. I highly recommend the Chicco Zero.
