I personally wouldn't buy it for my kids or let them play with it, but I don't think this would be illegal, since it just a game and it isn't actually gambling itself. But how could roulette even be fun for kids to play? I mean if the chips don't have any monetary value, the game isn't even really fun to play.

While gambling is not allowed for persons under 18, toys like this are pretty much allowed. In my honest opinion that sign should be "+18" and no one should be allowed to sell this to kids. I mean, seriously? Would you buy this for your kid? First of all what is the age of your kid sir? If he is 13 and above, I think it is fine for him to play that game. Because it is an eye opener to them that the world they are existing and in everyday lives they need to gamble. And it rise their logical thinking. But if he's 12 and below, just don't buy them that game.

This is insane, I wouldn't buy this kind of toy *Since I don't have kids yet* for my nephews or Godchild. Seriously 8+! If he is 13 and above, I think it is fine for him to play that game.
I think there's a legal age for a person to be eligible to gamble. I think that's 18+, Why would you buy this kind of toy for a 13-15 y/o? This could lead to a wrong path for very young age. It's not bad to gamble, but at young age like that really? *I made this mistake once and I hope no one could be involved in gambling at the age of 15*.

What surprised me was that "+8" sign. While gambling is not allowed for persons under 18, toys like this are pretty much allowed.
In my honest opinion that sign should be "+18" and no one should be allowed to sell this to kids.
I mean, seriously? Would you buy this for your kid?
Lol. That for sure came from china! Though I vaguely remember I got a toy that was something like this. It was a poker table for kids that included magic tricks. Talk about teaching kids to gamble when they're still young, eh.

Selling toys that had gambling elements freely is an act that will certainly be criticized by many people in any part of the world. Without a doubt, I will not buy it for my kids.

For sure this is not just mere oversight based from the picture. Look at it man. It is small and looks definitely like a child's toy to me. This was surely made intentionally, but it was a failure and it was a stupid toy for kids.

I won't buy my nephew that kind of toy I don't want to be the one who will introduce him with gambling and its not fun to see young ones play gambling at early age even if they only use play money because that will become their training ground and if the time comes that they will be in the right age for sure they will be a gambler and worst will be addicted in gambling.

I have a son who is already into lots of games which is kind of a bad sign, on that if any kid learns gambling or try to gamble then it will definitely affect their mind. Never ever let kids play these kind of toy.
This is a nice point, I have also a son which are into playing games but I wont suggest giving a gift a gambling toy. I would rather give him an educational tools which he can learned more. This is not a good idea that a kid will being into this kind of game.

They are still not allowed to play that kind of games, they will learn bad habits in an early age. Even if there is an age sign, we should also check as a parent if those toys are accurate to them. We are the one who are really responsible to them.

LOL, the "8+" is prolly just a recommendation and likely only because of the choking hazard from the dice/chips/roulette ball.
Anyway, personally, I don't have a problem with it. Kids are going to learn about a lot of bad things we don't want them to learn about before they are 18 yeas old or whatever age is the cutoff for such things - sex, drugs, alcohol, gambling etc. It's up to parents to educate/talk to their kids about such things regardless.

Interesting. That 18+ rule doesn't apply to all the countries,if that's not allowed in your legislature you should probably ask the guy to not sell it.Most of the dealers don't really give a shit as long as they're not selling a fire arm toy.My question is : Why didn't YOU explain that it is illegal to sell such toys to kids ?

It is an inappropriate toys, gambling only can be played when the person already able to responsible for his own act, that is why a lot of country has age restriction, this kind of toys will ruined the young generation and teach the kids gambling in early age can caused the kid to become addicted to gambling

Might be the company which have produced this isn't registered anywhere and local law enforcement might not care about such materials which are being sold openly in local stores.
Personally, I don't think this should be allowed to any kids and obviously nobody like to make their kid a addicted gambler in future.
Yeah. I'm assuming this is not a "Made in America" product as they are very strict in following the law laid down by Department of Commerce. If anyone finds about it, they will be taken out of the shelves immediately. I will not buy that kind of toys for my kids as well. Don't want them to learn gambling at a early age. There are better games than this one for kids. Or probably the other way around, the company is not registered since they should have known the mechanics of creating games and the age limit of each game. I would say let us not be hasty on judging and conclude that the item is made in China or made by Chinese people. Though I would not buy that game as a gift to any minors since basically gambling is not intended for minors.

LOL. Exactly. But you all know how these chinese toy manufacturer roll. They just make anything they want and see what sticks. You all can google "weird chinese toys" and see what I mean. They also infringe so much branded stuff it is ridiculous already. They even fail at copying stuff most of the time.

This shall help them know that if they play with money they will loose. This is a very nice game and it shall help all children understand what it is to play with money and the consequences of loosing it. So I see nothing wrong in it.

I got pretty similar toy casino for my 10th birthday, and I almost never played it, probably because I was always more focused on saving money instead of saving, but I definitely see how this can influence some kids and help develop gambling addiction later in their life. In my opinion, this game should be at least 13+. And it's very important that parents explain to their children that involves big risks and statistically there's always more chances to lose than to win. Sadly, most parents ignore this issue or don't have enough understanding of the subject.
