I have grandchildren, 3 & 6 yrs old. Will they both be able to play?

When I bought it my daughter was 3, she loved it. She loves building things though, so if your grandchildren enjoy that then it should be fun for both ages. I bought another set for 2 6 yr old boys and they love it. I think it's a fun all family game. But I believe the package recommended age is 8

Is it challenging and appropriate for adults?

I think it's perfect for young & old alike. Especially if u bought more sets or larger sets. I've had no problem getting it to stand up (as Donna had complain of) & the fun part about this is, it can be won by children as well as adults. Often, family games can give adults an edge but if u teach children to move slowly & think about there moves...they can easily be the winner. Gr8 learning tool for children that may be a bit too hyper. Teaches them to slow down & think!!! Hope this helps! :)

Yes. My son had no problems playing at 4 years old.

Is this game appropriate for children with Ausberger's?

I also have a Grandson that has Ausberger, he is 11 yrs old. He does not play this as a game but just tries to balance the stack. He tires but of course loses his patience; doesn't stay on the game long but I do see he tries a little harder and stays longer on the game. I think 11 and older it would do well and a good coordination projection, helps his patience improve. pac
