The fairy tale...
Once upon a time, a girl knocked on a castle door. She was disheveled from walking in a storm but insisted that she was a princess. A suspicious queen had her bed prepared. She placed a small pea underneath several layers of blankets and pillows. A real princess, the queen rationalized, would be able to tell something hidden beneath. During breakfast the next morning, princess remarked that she did not sleep well because there was something very hard in her bed. With that comment, the queen knew the guest was a real princess and allowed her son, the prince, to ask for her hand in marriage.

And now, the game...
Preparation: Assemble the bed. Place the game board face up and put the princess on any of the squares. Mix up all the bed sets and place near the game board for easy access.
How to play - beginners, version ...
The youngest player starts by rolling the die. The princess is moved clockwise according to the number of dots shown on the dice. If she lands on a bed, the player picks up a piece of bedding and puts it on the bed. If a player lands on the washing machine, a piece of bedding is removed.
How to win - beginners' version ...
If the tower falls over before all the bed sets have been piled up, everyone loses. If the players succeed in stacking all the pieces into one pile without the tower falling over, everyone wins and princess invites everyone to her castle for a big party.

Sleepy Princess and the Pea comes with instructions for an advanced version of the game.

Great game for children 3 - 8 years Anna of Red Lake, Ontario from 1/3/2009 7:54:02 AM
I felt this game was appropriate for children three to perhaps 8 years (Rated as 3 - 12)This game was fun and simple to play. I feel children as old as 4 -5 could definitely play this on their own without a lot of assistance from an adult.

Martine of Rosem�re, Quebec from 1/24/2010 4:50:41 AM
I would have appreciated that, for the price, the bed would be more solid, maybe made out of wood and not cardboard.

Great Companions!

Development benefits

The following developmental skills and benefits are encouraged by HABA Sleepy Princess and the Pea Children's Game learning toy:

HABA Sleepy Princess and the Pea Children's Game develops problem solving/Cognitive Development
Cognitive development is the process by which the brain develops the abilities to learn, remember and solve problems.

The foundation for these abilities starts during infancy as the brain begins forming countless synapses, or connections, between brain or nerve cells. The brain is made up of neurons (nerve cells resembling long wires).

When a baby is born there are relatively few connections between the neurons, and it is you and your baby's primary task to make new ones. Connections (synapses) between brain cells are made when a baby receives stimulation. As you engage and responds to your baby, you are helping to activate the formation of synapses. The synapses will combine to form neural pathways, and the configuration of those pathways will determine the child's ability to learn, relate to people, manage emotions, and function in the world.

HABA Sleepy Princess and the Pea Children's Game stimulates Social Development
Social Development is defined as a baby/child/person's ability to interact with others, including helping themselves and self-control.
