What is a cooperative game? It's a game where everyone plays together, no one is left out, and everyone has fun! In a cooperative game, players work together as a team against a common obstacle, not against each other.
Cooperative games emphasize play, not competition. Kids work together, they help each other and, most importantly, they play for FUN!
Cooperative Games foster:
- Non-stressful play situations
- Emotional development
- Shared decision making
- Creative problem solving
- A sense of community
- Positive self esteem
- Playfulness
- Cooperation

My Thoughts
Our Thoughts
This is the second game from Peaceable Kingdom my children have had the privilege of playing with and they loved it just as much as Fish Stix! My girls are constantly bickering, so having a "time out" of a game that makes them work together is excellent. They love the "storyline" of the game too as it involves ogres! They are pretty big Shrek fans so this was a perfect game for them.
I did have to play the game with them a few times so that they understood what all they were supposed to do, and in what order. I have to keep a watchful eye on my five year old, as she likes to play with game pieces and then lose them, so keep an eye on that if your kid is like mine! They each caught on and can play the game without my assistance now, I just ensure ALL the pieces are put away properly.
Race to the Treasure captures their attention, makes them feel a little like pirates and it's a good break of a monotonous day that sets them back on track of working together. It's also fun for all of us to play together, not just the kids. A good family game and it'd be an excellent addition to your Christmas list as well as many other products by Peaceable Kingdom!

This game actually looks pretty interesting. Will have to check it out . I can see it being a lot of fun and lasting a long time.
Looks like a fun game. My girls would love it as they love all board games.
I haven't seen this game before, but it looks like one my nephews might enjoy. I like that it is 'green' too.
Hello everyone, I have been huge fan of Cricket for many years and I am thinking about trying my luck with sports betting. Can someone help me out with a few questions? Which bookmaker do you recommend for cricket betting? How do I get started with sports betting? Any tips or advice?
I have been betting on sports for a long time and I advise you to try betting as well. My friend advised me to bet on a great site https://1xbet.ng/en/ . There are many people who gamble, but they understand that they need to make money so that they can deny themselves nothing. So I understand how important stamina is in sports betting.
