Magnetic battleship game for the youngest, with simplified coordinates, in a lovely gift box.

The classic "hit and sunk" game, in magnetic version and with a simplified coordinate system designed for the youngest. The first to sink all of the opponent's ships before all of their own are sunk wins.

• Includes: 2 magnetic boards, 2 sets of 5 magnetic boats, 22 blue pegs, 18 red pegs, 16 model cards, 2 wooden stands and the game rules.
• Thick, glossy cardboard pieces, nicely illustrated.
• Magnets strong enough to hold the pieces in place, without getting in the way of handling.
• Replaces traditional coordinates with a simplified symbol/color coding: e.g., whale/blue instead of b3.
• Teaches asking questions using coordinates, to narrow the search field and find the enemy position.
• Encourages verbal expression and exercises dexterity, visual discrimination, understanding of spatial relationships and logical thinking.
• A superb gift, in a lovely decorative shaped box, for playing "like the grown-ups."
• A travel game that appeals to young and old alike.
