Candy Land Vintage Bookshelf Edition, For 2 to 4

The Candy Land board game is a simple racing game where eager young players journey along a rainbow-covered path, passing through the Peppermint Forest and the Gumdrop Mountain, with the goal of being the first to reach Home Sweet Home. To move their Gingerbread Man marker along the path, players draw a color card, advancing their marker to the next square of the same color. This easy-to-play game requires no reading, making it an ideal first board game for children.

Designed for preschoolers ages three to six, Candy Land encourages social interaction, patience in waiting for one's turn, and practice in recognizing colors, learning rules, and following directions.
