WINNER
Magic Touch Piano™ Musical Toy

The Magic Touch Piano from HAPE and Kids II is the ideal way to introduce toddlers to the world of music. The innovative wooden piano keys do not work in the classic way but with touch and warm fingers alone. The modern toy that aids children‘s development comes with 3 colour-coded sheets of music. Toddlers can practise colour coordination by matching the coloured notes on the sheets to the piano keys. They will then hear soft, high-quality sounds that are not too loud and intrusive – and quite parent-friendly as well! Two different game modes allow pint-sized pianists either to compose their own music or to play classic melodies.

The Slow Motion Race Game

To slow down and have some fun – that‘s something that Hasbro has managed to do very well with its Slow Motion Race Game. A sensor on the antenna of a sweat headband measures the speed of the players‘ movements – but it‘s not the fastest that wins. No, this game is all about being the slowest and moving calmly forward, otherwise a warning sound beeps. The amusing family game trains one‘s motor skills and is a whole lot of fun for all age groups.

toi+

toi+ from Ravensburger works like a console without a display. At the centre of the „characters“ – a compass, a brain board and a vulture – is where you‘ll find the technological core, which allows different games to be played. The jury‘s favourite was the vulture that the children are supposed to move up and down in the room – and that‘s just one of the 50 games on offer! toi+ is suitable for one or more players and can even speak to them.

Pikoko

The card game Pikoko from Brain Games brings the flair of the casino to your own games night. Pikoko is a trick-taking card game in which coins are used to bet on each player‘s chances of winning. What‘s special about the game is that you only see the cards of the others, because you arrange your own cards in a holder that faces the other players. This makes the holder look like a peacock, thus giving the game its name. „Family fun in a great design“ was the jury‘s verdict.
