Review of Crocodile Dentist

Crocodile Dentist is one of those toys that is fun for a couple of days and then loses its appeal.

I got this game for my daughter Ally, age 4, and she thought it was fun for the first couple of times we played it, but then lost interest.

The game is a plastic crocodile who has one “sore tooth.” Players take turns pressing down his plastic teeth one at a time until someone presses the “sore tooth” and the crocodile’s mouth suddenly snaps shut. The sore tooth changes ever time you play and the game requires no batteries.

At first, Ally thought it was funny when the crocodile suddenly snapped down. But pretty quickly, she grew bored with the toy. The problem may be that this is no skill or challenge to the game. Either you pressed the wrong tooth or you don’t.

And Ally complains it hurts a little when the crocodile snaps his mouth closed on her hand. I would pass on this toy.
