Reviewed for 2009, Sassafras, Third Grade

The frog pins in this game are so cute, it's a shame to knock them down. And actually, it's not that easy, either! But this set of six tiny wooden ribbiters is a breeze to tote around for spur of the moment bowling, and it also helps eight and nine-year-olds develop hand-eye coordination, patience, and dexterity. Plus, the frogs can double as dolls for pretend play when the bowling's over. Big fun in a small package. (Sassafras, $8.95)
