Play-Doh Launch Game with 3 Cans of Play-Doh

This game was so much fun! The age range is 4 years and up! So it's perfect for our little family. It's so hard to find games that our 5 year old can enjoy with us. There is some set up required. It only took a few minutes though to put it together. You just need to add the launch pieces (3 of them) and the play-doh man. It does required a C battery which is not included. It comes with 3 cans of Play-Doh which is used during game play. The object of the game is make little play-doh balls that you “launch” at the play-doh man in the middle. Each player takes a launch pad and a different color of play-doh. The launch pad has a mold in it. The directions read to make 10 small balls of play-doh before game play starts. Once you begin to play the play-doh man spins around and the lid moves up and down while you try to launch your pieces of play-doh into the can. Now this took a little bit of getting used to. Once you get the hang of it though it's not super difficult. Our 5 year old did have a hard time with it though because you need to push down on the launch button pretty hard to get enough momentum to get the play-doh into the can. The first person to get 3 pieces into the can wins. Actually we just played it and didn't really worry to much about who won but if your the competitive type that's how you win! It was pretty fun, we enjoyed it. My 5 year old did get a little frustrated though towards the end. She is so independent she didn't want any help and it was difficult for her to do on her own. I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using BzzAgent.com.

We received this game from Hasbro as part of a promotion. My kids (ages 4,4 and 7) love it. Before playing the game, players must roll Play-Doh in marble sized balls. This took my kids a good five minutes or more the first time we played, but they loved it because they were playing with Play-Doh. The actual game is fast-paced and short. Players use plastic flippers to launch Play-Doh balls in a rotating mouth. The first player to get 3 balls in the mouth wins. It takes my kids about 1-3 minutes to play each game, and they play several games at a time. The only potential negatives are (1) only three players can play at a time (but games are short so kids should be able to take turns) and (2) the game requires batteries which aren't included. Overall though great game for young kids.
