Customer Reviews

The "Barrel of Monkeys" game may be one of the easiest, simplest games ever to be marketed. It consists of a plastic barrel about the size of a grapefruit filled with little plastic monkeys, arms extended and bent. (You've seen them, either in Toy Story, 12 Monkeys, or in your genetic memory. These things have been around forever.) The goal of the game is to pick up a string of monkeys by holding the top one and looping arms together. It's about as complicated as pick-up sticks, and more fun -- after all, it's monkey-based.
The fun of Barrel of Monkeys isn't the game. It's the score of plastic monkeys. Monkeys are inherently funny, plastic loop-armed monkeys even moreso. Consider the price, too: a couple dollars for a whole barrel of monkeys. How can you /not/ afford to buy it?

Although the quality of the monkeys has diminished since I was a kid, today's monkeys are much fun for my boys as they were for me.
We have accumulated many sets over the past few years, (thanks to donkey kong and the barrell thing). My boys are forever linking them from everything in our house that they can imagine. I often find long chains of monkeys hanging around the house in various creative places!
Monkeys are great and they are worth buying a few for the imaginative and creative play that they inspire.
