Find It Games ~ Find It On the Farm Review & Giveaway (Winner's Choice!)

There are many instances when it's important for my kids to find quiet activities to do. Whether it be in church, a long car ride, or even while my 3 month old sleeps...I am always on the lookout for these types of activities for my 4 year old and 2 year old. That's why I love Find It Games!

Founded by husband and wife partners, Bob and Lynn knight in 2003, Find It Games began as a fun family idea at the dinner table. Now grown into a business that has sold over 1 million units, Find It Games is a brand name that is recognized by the best specialty retailers in the industry and found in over 7,000 specialty retail stores such as Barnes & Noble, Borders, Hallmark, Target, Christian Book and more!

As a child I loved hide and seek, scavenger hunts, etc. My kids are no different! They love to find things, which is why I love the idea of games that help them find hidden objects and spark creativity. That's why I was happy when introduced to Find It Games this past summer and couldn't have been happier when asked to review their new product, Find It On The Farm!
The product is great quality! This Find It Game comes in a clear cylinder shaped like a silo...and is extremely durable and well made. It holds up well to my kids shaking it, twisting it, etc. I can tell it is something that will last us a long time, and for that I am thankful!

This game is recommended for ages 8+, but my kids still really enjoy it! It's the perfect size for little hands and the colorful pellets are very appealing to them. Both kids love the new On The Farm hidden object game and enjoy searching for the 42 different items tucked among the pellets. Everything is packaged inside a silo-shaped cylinder, which makes it all that much more fun! Unlike the last Find It Game we received to review, On The Farm adds more of a challenge, as the items are very close in color to the pellets inside. I can definitely see how this could be something that my kids will enjoy playing with for years to come!


The game comes with a score pad to check off items as you find them. There's also a checklist of all the items on the bottom of the cylinder for when you're in the car, etc. I think these are great for older children as they try to find each item.
One way this could be more geared toward younger children Kaelyn's age who are not reading yet, is an image of each item on the other end of the game and scorecards so they can easily see what objects there are to find and check them off as they go.

Overall we've really enjoyed On The Farm! It's entertaining, portable, great quality, fun, and seems to hold the kids' attention for a very long time. They enjoy the challenge of trying to find the hidden treasures, yet it doesn't become too stressful which is great. Even my husband and I have enjoyed playing it! I would definitely recommend it to families with children of all ages!

Of course this is only one of so many great products found at Find It Games. They are also launching three new jigsaw puzzles, under a collection called Pieces of History, that mimic the “finding” activity of its award-winning and well-recognized contained adventures. The puzzle series targets a significant event familiar to both children and adults. Once the pieces are put in place, the history-themed puzzles offer an instant lesson to children and adults as they read the parchment-like list of hidden items. Each is for Ages 8 and up, and costs $13.
