 Skittles - Years of fun for all ages!Dec 06, 1999
Skittles is one of those toys that will provide your children with years of fun and still look like new when you need to pull it out for grandchildren. Our grandparents had this game and what I most remember is that it was one of the few things all five of my siblings could do together and have a guaranteed good time. We began using it when we were small (ages spanning 4-10) and were still playing when some of us were adults (ages 16-22). Sometimes our parents and grandparents would even join in! It is an exciting game that can be played according to the rules or just "freestyle." It is equally fun with one player or 4. Now that I am grown with three children of my own, guess what they play? Our skittles game. It is rare these days to have a toy of such lasting value. This has become a family treasure for us and will for you too.

Let 'em rip!Nov 29, 2000
By M. Ragen

This toy brings back memories. With a hard yank on the wind-up cord, then listening to the rattle and roar as the top dances across the board on its way to knock over the skittle pins, this toy can be loads of fun. With skill (?) and experience, you can at least imagine that you can steer the top in an initial direction even though knocking over all of the pins is pure luck as the top spins towards the back rooms. However, enough of my memories: my kids (8 and 6) enjoy playing with this game. Just enough competition to keep them going time after time.

An old classic...Oct 30, 2002
By Salerina
I remember playing the Carron game "Skittles" at a friend's house back in the 1970's. I purchased one for my own kids when they were 7 and 10 years old and we enjoyed many family "competitions". When I began babysitting my 6 and 8 year old niece and nephew, I drug out the old game out and showed them how to play. Now they beg to play it whenever they come over. I plan to surprise them with a game of their own for Christmas. It's so durable--our old game still looks like new.

Time flew by...Nov 29, 2001
When a friend and I discovered this game, our initial reaction was to be unimpressed, that is until we gave the cord its first yank. As the top manuvered around the board we were instantly hooked, deriving strategies to obtain the greatest point total. It was not until an hour and a half later that we stopped that initial game, kicking ourselves for allowing our uninformed first impression.

Another generationApr 20, 2000
We purchased this game 25 years ago for our children. It is still a source of fun every holiday when the family gathers together. Age doesn't matter. Now we are purchasing one for our grandchildren. We can't give it too high of a recommendation!
