Jaques of London is a family run business who they have been making toys for over 200 years over 8 generations (that’s pretty cool). They believe that play should be at the heart of every family as play helps develop young minds and supports parents who want the best possible start for their children. The orders are tied by hand with such pretty ribbon.
They have very kindly sent us their metal tin can alley game to get us off the screens and outside having fun.
It arrived in a lovely decorated box tied up with their logo ribbon (it was like opening a lovely wrapped present.) Inside there are 10 beautifully painted red cans (the red is so shiny) all numbered from 1 – 10 and 3 red bean bags. Not only is it a fun game to enjoy together as a family and with friends too but also great for younger kids to teach them to count and to recognise their numbers.
We set them up, 4 along the bottom, then 3, then 2 and then 1 on top. We took aim and threw the bean bags at the tins, it was so much fun. We kept stacking the cans up again and again and played so many games as we were having so much fun, it was like playing the stall games at a funfair and now we can do it at home! The set is currently on offer for only ยฃ10.99 (normal price is ยฃ19.99) click here to avail of this fantastic offer!
