In our house we LOVE board games.
With a 6 year age gap in kids,
they are definitley playing different games at different levels,
so the trick is finding a game we can all play together.
Recently I was introduced to Sound It! Found It! from Wowopolis
and we have had such fun playing!
At night, we like to spend some time together and
playing a board game is one way to do that!
And of course it is summer so we have extra time to play during the day!
And of course it is summer so we have extra time to play during the day!
Sound It! Found It! is a guessing game but with sounds.
First the players must identify the sound and
then quickly identify who or what that sound is coming from.
So, why is this game perfect?
#1 it is fun!
I also love listening to the kids come up with the sounds...
I am actually quite impressed with their creativity!
#2 We can all play together!
Even thought the game says it is for ages 7+, it is easily played with children younger. My (almost) 5 year old can easily play this game on her own without a "helper" (and she always wins).
It is pretty rare to find games that we can all play together with the kids age difference.
The game comes with 8 game boards and a matching set of cards for each board.
Here is a brief description on how to play...
The Sounder (player #1) selects a card without letting anyone see it.
The Sounder makes a sound representing what the picture on the card is
and the other players try to guess the sound.
"Roarrr!" (but don't say roar, sound it!)
The player that guesses what kind of sound and what that sounds represents...
but does not tell anyone, instead looks for the picture on the game board,
when that player thinks they have found the picture that "matches" the sound,
that players says "Found it!"
The player who guesses the sound correctly is the Sounder for the next round.
There are also 2 ways to make the game more challenging:
the first by using more than one card at a time,
and the second by using all of the game boards and playing the "Super Sound Round."
I love the bright colors and fun graphic on the game. And we have only played the one version of the game (it is so fun!), I look forward to playing the other versions too.
Wowopolis has made this game fun and has another fun way to bring a little smile to your day, with the "Daily Wow" on Facebook and Twitter, where they post quirky and silly "WOW" faces of children, animals, and unexpected inanimate objects.
Now, how about you try this game for yourself!?
