Galloping Snails...That's our name for it.
There is nothing sluggish about the snails or the kids racing them in Snail's Pace Race.
On your mark, get set...race! All snails take the starting line. Players take turns rolling two colored dice and move TWO snails forward with each roll. (If both dice show the same color, the lucky snail gets to advance 2 spaces!) Unlike Candyland or other games of this type, players do not choose one snail to move during the game. Players get to move them all! The goal is to anticipate which color of snail will cross the finish line - (and dine on a delicious lettuce leaf first!)
Kids can't contain their excitement as they pull for their favorite snail to take lead of the pack. After a quick, quick introduction, kids' grasp the innovative concept and race to play Snail's Pace Race time and time again without your prompting.
Teaches game skills, color recognition, pre-counting skills, taking turns, cooperative play, fine motor skills, patience, and task completion. No reading or number skills required for playing this educational game!
With two or more game sets and a little added creativity from a teacher - this format is great for an introduction to concepts of making predictions, probability, estimation, and logical deduction!!

Great Game

This is a great first game for young children. My daughter loves to roll the dice and move the snails. It is great for turn taking and color recognition. The snails are competing, not the children.
Great First Game For Toddlers

We purchased this game for our daughter, who turns three in 4 months, as a present. It is a great introduction to playing games in that it teaches your child to take turns, roll dice, interpret what the dice "say" to do, and do it (in the case of this game, it's just moving the appropriately colored snail). All without the added complication of keeping straight whose token is whose or teaching your child to be a good winner/loser. (That will come later!) The snails are fairly large and chunky, perfect for little hands. Our daughter asks to play the "snail game" at least once a day, and has names for all the snails. We've had more luck getting her to follow the "rules" for this game (as much can be expected for someone her age) than the other ages 3 and up games we've tried. Highly recommend the game to others wanted a simple, straightforward game with which to introduce their child or grandchild to the world of board games!

My Favorite Game

I used this game in my classroom when I was a pre-K teacher. The children loved it. Well made. It held up to the wear and tear that happens in a classroom setting. The children had a great time learning their colors, matching the dice to the snail and making up their own rules. I've bought it now for my nephews who are 3 and 5.

My rating of Snail's Pace Race
Posted 5/14/2007 by DJ Hart
Rating: 
Very well constructed. This game was a purchase for my 2 1/2 year old grandson. I was looking for a game that had no one particular person being the winner. This game is perfect just for that. It was enjoyed by him, and practice for color recognition and counting spaces. He likes the snails very much. I am completely satisfied with this purchase.
