Balance games

Show your cool and challenge your opponents with this colourful game of skill! The aim of this game is simple and accessible from the age of 3.

Patience and strategy are at the heart of this colourful wooden skill game for children aged 3 years and up! The goal of the game is simple: your child will have to first build the tower by placing the blocks in rows of 3 and mixing the colours for added fun! Each row must be perpendicular to the previous one. Once constructed, two levels play are possible: the colour-learning or balance game. Children wanting to learn the colours will need to throw the die and then remove a block corresponding to the colour determined by the die, from the tower. This piece will then need to be placed perpendicularly - and only using one hand - at the top of the tower. Play then moves on to the next player. For older players hoping to develop their patience and meticulousness, they will have to remove a block upon each turn with one hand and replace it at the top, without using the dice. The whole family will be in stitches!
