I rate toys using a 3 category system. I look at their entertainment value, durability, and creativity. Every toy needs to keep a child's attention, be able to stand up to their rough playing, and either promote their creativity or be used to play in creative ways. I'll start with a short review and then explain my reasons for the rating in detail.
We bought this for my 3-year-old daughter for Christmas, and it has been a big hit. Her and her 2-year-old brother beg to play it everyday when I get home from work. It is fun and colorful, and helps to teach them how to be patient and take turns as well as how to have fun, even if you don't finish first.
ENTERTAINMENT:
Candy land is simple enough for a 2-year old to figure out, and fun enough not to make the parents who have to play with them completely miserable. It brings back memories from my childhood, so I have a lot of fun playing as well.
My daughter loves counting the colors, and she loves narrating her path and telling stories about how she met Queen Frostine on her way to King Candy's castle. My son loves drawing the cards and moving his piece along the path.
DURABILTY:
The board is very sturdy, but the cards get pretty messed up pretty quick. My son has already crumpled up the cupcake card, so we know when that one is coming in the stack. There is a version of this game that has a spinner instead of cards, which they got from my brother for Christmas (what a coincidence), but my kids enjoy picking a card more than using the spinner.
CREATIVITY:
My daughter gets pretty creative telling stories about the Candy Land characters, but the best part about this game is that it teaches kids how to be patient and wait for their turn in a creative way.
My kids are pretty patient for being toddlers, but they are still toddlers. When they want something, they want it, and they usually aren't willing to wait for their turn. But within a few minutes of playing, they were remarkably good at taking turns. They cheered each other on, even if the other one just passed them up. They loved every minute of it.
Outside of game play, I have noticed them taking turns with toys and not fighting as much. They still fight, just not as much. They share their toys a lot better. I didn't expect that to happen. I don't think people really think that a board game would be able to teach kids life lessons, but its surprising how they carry the little things into their everyday interactions.
In conclusion, this is a great way to introduce children to board games and teach them patience and good sportsmanship. Its a must have for young children.

Reviewed in Spain on November 11, 2015
Ha venido nuevo completamente, y precintado, y lo mejor de todo, en castellano, no en inglés, así que chapó.
El juego está muy bien como primer juego, es para preescolares, pone que es a partir de 3 años.
Es la edición de Candyland del 2010. Se llama: el reino de las dulces aventuras.
Consta de tablero, con los nombres en castellano, cuatro peones con forma de galleta de jengibre, 64 cartas, instrucciones en castellano. No hay que tirar dados, simplemente coges una carta del montón y la usas.
Hay cartas con un bloque de color, otras con dos bloques de color, y cartas con dibujo. Cuando usas de un color avanzas hasta la casilla de el color de la carta. Cuando usas una de dos colores, avanzas hasta la segunda casilla del mismo color. Si por ejemplo, coges una carta con piruleta, avanzas el peón hasta la casilla con piruleta.
Hay atajos y casillas que te hacen perder el turno, o retroceder.
Yo me interesé por este juego, porque lo vi en la película de Toy Story. Siempre he encontrado ediciones en inglés, vendidas o en UK, o en USA. Por suerte, con amazon, puedes acceder a objetos de todo el mundo, así que estaba muy contenta de encontrarlo. Lo compré a mis mágicos juguetes, que envía desde España, y no puedo estar más contenta, de ver que tengo una edición en castellano.
Es un juego muy colorido, y pueden jugar tanto niños como niñas. Partidas cortas. Las fotos se corresponden con el juego, solo que, ya digo, el que tengo viene en castellano, no sé si los demás también estarán en nuestro idioma.
Va a ser un regalo maravilloso para Navidad, para disfrutar en familia. Pueden jugar hasta cuatro jugadores.
Precio: un poquito más de 27 euros, quizá un poco alto, pero más barato que lo que he visto por eBay por ejemplo. Insisto en que sólo lo he podido encontrar o aquí o en eBay, y en la otra web con gastos de envío era bastante más caro.
Un saludo.
