Lucky Ducks
Board Games November 4th, 2007Because of our move and settling into our new place, we postponed having Rae’s birthday party until a week ago. Her birthday was October 4th, but we had cake and gave her gifts last weekend. One of the gifts from us was the game Lucky Ducks. I always loved the duck game at the fair where you picked up a duck from the water. This game reminded me of that, so I thought it might be something she would like even if she is only two. After all, she loves ducks.

Lucky Ducks is a huge hit. She loves placing the ducks onto the pond and then picking them up. The premise of the game is pretty easy. Players have a shape assigned to them like a red square. Then they must find the three ducks in the pond with that shape before their oppoents find theirs. It’s a simple game that makes it perfect for pre-schoolers even toddlers. The ‘pond’ is turned on by the red button in the middle of the action and is turned off the same way.
Lucky Ducks will be a lot of fun for her to play with her cousins. For right now, she just enjoys toting the ducks around and taking them out of the pond.
