Squirrels Go Nuts - Help the Squirrels Prepare for Winter!
SmartGames Squirrels Go Nuts! challenges players to help the Squirrels hide their acorns by strategically planning moves around the board. Squirrels Go Nuts! includes 60 challenges; solutions to these challenges draw from cognitive skills including planning and logic. It features a portable game board with a lid, making it perfect for travel.
Squirrels Go Nuts! is unique logic game in that it offers the fun of actually dropping the acorns into holes. Earlier challenges are easier, but later challenges require 50+ moves to solve!

We love pulling out a few of these puzzle games as a family and working on them. They're so satisfying to solve and fun to pass the time. Also great to throw in your purse and take in the car.

Teaches your child how to problem solve. Loads of fun to play. Even elderly adults like to play this game to keep their problem solving in tip top shape. Looks simple but it can be very challenging.

My six year old enjoys the starter level puzzles, my 9 and 10 year olds like the junior and expert levels and my husband and I like trying the master and wizard levels. And the 3 year old thinks the squirrels and acorns are cute. So, it’s a win for the whole family!

I bought this as a gift for my 8 year old nephew. He started playing with it immediately. Soon his brother and cousins and all the adults wanted a turn! Love a good one player game to keep the kids busy!

I bought this for a family road trip for my kids, but I ended up playing with it. The book tells you the pieces to use and the starting position. The goal is to drop the acorns into the holes. If you like puzzles/logic games, you will like this. It's cute, smart and fun!

My 5 year old loves this game (as do I)! It just arrived this morning and he has been playing non stop for over an hour. Not only are the characters adorable, but they are easy to maneuver, the size of the game is perfect, and the puzzles are challenging. We are looking at purchasing more SmartGames - highly recommend!

My son loves this game and the rest of the family has enjoyed it as well. It's small and self contained, so it's easy to pack on a road trip. I like the variety in difficulty of the challenges. It's a great quiet activity that he can play on his own.

We own a few Smart games games including Little Red Riding Hood and Temple Connections, and my daughter loves them because they are so tactile and imaginative. She generally finds the pathway games (like the other two mentioned) easier and more engaging than this one. She gets a bit frustrated and I have to engage with her much more to reset the puzzle if she gets it wrong (whereas in the other two, the basic puzzle is set and doesn't move). But to be fair she's a bit younger than the recommended age for this, so I think she'll grow into it. However, she loves the acorns which have a truly marvelous feel and sound.My main comment is that, for a travel game, having open holes for the very small acorns to fall through seems like a questionable choice. I would not bring this on an airplane or any traveling situation that could involve turbulence. If I had one suggestion to the manufacturer it would be to put a little silicone cap underneath the holes (like those popper fidget thingies), so it would keep the acorns from potentially falling away but you could also push the acorns up from the bottom. Otherwise, it's fun and really sturdily built. Great choice for any kid who loves puzzles!
