A collection of games where we can play freely, or follow the rules of six different games and some variations. Games involving dice traversal, shape and color recognition, performing routines on the farm, shopping at the market, memory...

Today we're going to review Let's Go Shopping!, a fun shopping game with colored dice, for 2 to 4 players ages 3 and up .

Preparations:

In this game the board "The Market" is used. Spread the game board on the table and place the food items on the market stalls, each in its own color. Prepare the die and deal a card (shopping list) to each player.

How do you play?

The objective of the game is to get all the food items on the shopping list before the other players. The player who has been shopping most recently goes first. Roll the dice and see what color comes up:

Do you have any food of that color on your list? Great! Grab it from the stand and take it to your spot.
Did you already have that food in your pocket? Well, maybe you'll have better luck next time...
Don't have that color on your list? Oh, you can't take anything back to your place.

Give the die to the next player to roll.

When does the game end?

The game ends as soon as one player has collected all the food items on their list. Did you enjoy this cool game? We thought it was very simple, but essential for learning how to roll dice, identify colors, respect each other's turn, and follow some very simple rules. In this game, as in so many others... you either win or you learn! Next week we'll tell you how to play another game: Let's Go Shopping!
