I couldn't figure out from the video what the "game dynamic" is of this toy. I see that one arranges the spindles so that the animals spin when the ribbon is pulled.
Is the pattern a puzzle for the kids to solve? Do the kids follow along based on the patterns shown in the story?
Either way, exciting concept. I wish they explained the game itself though.
