The Mouse Trap game, a longtime family favorite, is always good for zany action and lots of laughs. Scurry around the board collecting cheese and stealing cheese from other players…but watch out for the trap! While kids are engaged in playing the Mouse Trap game, they can also practice valuable skills in construction, cause and effect, and decision-making. As they interact with the trap, a working, multi-part machine, kids can practice construction skills. They can also work on understanding cause and effect as they understand that each action causes a reaction. And players can practice decision making as they analyze the situation and determine the next best step. Most importantly, kids can have so much fun playing this wacky game!

Now itâs just a regular board game with a bunch of extra parts for decoration.. very frustrated.
Kids love Mousetrap My grandchildren love this game. I gave only four stars because in all the decades since I was a kid this game has the same annoying problem. The trap is constantly falling and having to be repositioned. You would think in 50 years they would be able to fix that issue. Otherwise it is a fun time playing with the kids.
