My 7 year old son is one of those children who only has to catch sight of an advert for a toy of some description on the t.v and we immediately get those words 'can I have that for Christmas/Birthday', even though he generally hasn't got a clue what he's asking for. With this in mind I tend to take what he's asking for with a pinch of salt unless it's something he tends to go on about rather a lot and seems to take a real interest in. One such item which I thought would be one of those occasions was the Gator Golf game. This is generally aimed at children a little younger than me son so I thought he would soon lose interest in wanting the game, but he ...  Read the complete review

A quick glance at the high rates from other reviewers here tells me that I have had a very different experience with this toy and that perhaps my Gator Golf is faulty! My children kept asking for this every time they saw it come on the television and I thought it looked good especially as it did not require batterries which seems such a rarity in toys these days and the ones they normally request usually need loads so we were all happy when Santa did indeed bring this coveted toy. (He must have got it from Argos for around £15)! The Gator was easy to put together just snapping into place as did the two brightly coloured golf clubs which came in ...  Read the complete review

With a four year old in the house, there was an abundance of new games under our tree this christmas. ONe that my daughter wanted to rip straight out of the box and play was this Gator Golf. Gator Golf is by Playskool Games and can be bought for £14.79 in Argos amongst other places. The game is suitable for up to 2 players ages 3+ although it does require some adult assembly first. The box contains two putters, one yellow and one green. These come in three pieces which easily snap together. What I liked about the putters was the scoring mechanism on each putter.The handles each have a scoring system from '0' to '4' and a sliding ...  Read the complete review

I bought this game for my eldest daughter for her 5th birthday as she loves playing games and I thought it would be quite a quick game that we could play with her. I picked the game up in Asda not long after Christmas and they had reduced it down to £5, you can buy the game in many places such as supermarkets, Argos, toy shops and online. The game has a RRP of £14.99 although it is currently just under £10 with free delivery on Amazon. The game came in a cardboard box which showed the alligator on the front, the box was very brightly coloured which of course make a young child want to look inside and the Hasbro logo was on it as they are the makers ...  Read the complete review

Ages 2 -8 Gator golf is just a plastic alligator with a mouth that opens wide to catch the golf ball. The mouth slopes up to the tail which is spring loaded. If you are using a lightweight plastic ball, the mouth will snap shut and the tail will then throw the ball back to you. The toy also comes with two plastic balls and two golf clubs which are surprisingly well made. We have had ours for two years and the clubs and gator are in perfect condition despite quite a bit of use. Unfortunately the golf balls were lost over time to an overgrown garden next door, but any light weight plastic balls, such as can be found in cheap toy sets will work. Proper golf ...  Read the complete review
