ect for two players or team play, this game puts a seasonal spin on the classic guessing game by encouraging players to ask strategic yes-or-no questions to narrow down and pinpoint the correct sweater.Warm & Wooly naturally strengthens essential skills such as listening comprehension and logical reasoning, while also targeting key auditory goals.
