## Description

Jaques of London Wooden Shut the Box Game 4 Player | Premium Traditional Educational Dice Games | Since 1795 : desertcart.co.uk: Toys & Games

Review: Great quality brand, long lasting gift that can be passed onto other family members - My kids love this game. Lovely, good quality product, finished well with no rough parts. Comes in a nice cardboard box. Great for a gift if not sure what to buy someone's kids. Played a lot at home and great for learning number bonds to 12 quickly. My kids 14, 11 and 5 all play together which is saying something given the age gaps. It's almost impossible to find things these days that do not involve a screen and that can keep siblings of varying ages entertained, but this worked. I also bought the wooden snakes and ladders, ludo double sided board after a cardboard folding one got damaged.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely family game
*by H***1 on 9 November 2020*

We love shut the box and we love Jacques, so when I saw they did this 4 player version, I knew we had to have it! It came BEAUTIFULLY presented (as we now expect from Jacques) and is a lovely game. Would make a really nice gift for many, particularly those with school age children learning to count. A nice fun game for the whole family and another lovely piece from Jacques
