Product Description
Green Eggs and Ham - Speedy Diner is the fast paced frenetically fun food game! Sam-I-Am has opened a café and invited his friends, Fox, Mouse, and Goat, for dinner. Help serve up his signature green eggs and ham along with a menu full of other silly Seussian foods. Listen closely because these critter customers can't decide what to eat! And hurry, hurry, hurry-the musical timer is playing and speedy service is the key to 5-star success!In this fast-paced, fun game for preschoolers, players work together to deliver food to the café guests as fast as they can. Take turns being the Chef calling out orders to the other players, who serve as waiters, running back and forth to pick up the foods and deliver them to the correct customers. The faster you deliver the food, the more tips you'll make! But watch out-when you hear Bugs in the Kitchen! you've got to race back to the dining room and check all the tables for insects. Players use color, shape and other pre-reading skills to identify food items and counting to collect their reward coins.Contents: 1 musical menu timer, 1 chef hat, green eggs and ham, 20 coins, 18 food tiles, 8 double-sided menu cards, 3 customer pads and 1 score pad.

My kids are ages 4 and 2, and they both successfully play this game, and absolutely love it. We have 3 games in this series (other than this one, I Can Do That and Horton Hears a Who), and this is by far our favorite. My husband and I like it because it gets the kids really running around, and teaches them colors, shapes, and names of objects. My kids love to play kitchen anyway, so they are a natural chef and waiter. The book calls out instructions, and is very interactive. The 4 year old can manage pushing the big button on it, but the 2 year old has trouble. Sofar, we've never played with the coins that help to keep score; we play as a team, and we all cheer for each other when we end up with everything right in the end. It's a great game to teach teamwork, and just generally really fun.

I've been running a daycare for 18 years, and while this is a fulfilling job (I'm told), it tends to get boring after year two. Then I purchased the Speedy Diner Game, and life suddenly became worthwhile and fun!
This toy is best combined with any Gordon Ramsay DVD. I sit the kids down to watch the DVD first, then bring out the game. I also tinkered with the timer so the kids have half the allowed time to prepare and deliver their food. Oh, and I am ALWAYS the customer. The very loud, demanding customer. I also taught my pet parrot Bunkotillo to scream "BUGS IN THE KITCHEN" at 30-second intervals which brought new meaning to the word "frenetic".
If you are a dedicated childcare professional, you will take the extra time to collect real bugs to add to the authenticity of the game. I keep cockroaches in a jar hidden in my purse, and let them out just before my meal arrives.
They were SO right when they said this game serves up big laughs. Just picture adorable little kitchen tyrants shoving food at stressed-out waiters who are screaming and slapping roaches off their little aprons. Kids can just be SO funny!
Fun to play! August 8, 2009

I love this game because it is a copperative game that helps children learn how to play together. The pieces are fun and colorful and durable. My child could play this over and over and not get tired of it. Great game!!! I would recommend this game!

My daughter has a terrific time, either trying to "Fill" the orders, or being the chef and watching the "waitress" run around trying to get the orders right! Lots of fun!!!
