Die Biene Maja: Blumenwiese*
Die Biene Maja: Blumenwiese (Maya the Bee: Flower Meadow) is a first dice game from HABA for 1 to 4 children aged 2+ who help Maya collect flowers.
What's it about?
It belongs to HABA's My Very First Games range, includes a wooden Maya figure and lasts just 5 to 10 minutes. Maya's friends want one flower of every colour, and the children help them find the right ones. The first player to collect five different flowers wins.
How it plays
- Roll the die.
- Find the matching flower and take it.
- Keep going until one child has five different colours.
What makes the box special
- A wooden Maya the Bee that small hands can grip easily
- Pieces that also work for free play and simple puzzling, no rules needed
- A gentle first introduction to playing by rules: recognising colours, taking turns, collecting
Who is it for?
Toddlers meeting their very first real game, and the parents, grandparents or nursery groups playing alongside them. Fans of the cartoon will recognise the main character straight away.
Conclusion
This is not trying to be anything more than a warm first step into board games, and it does that well. Most children will want more tension by around age four and move on to slightly bigger games. The edition is German, but play needs no reading.
