I have always been a big fan of board games and couldn't wait until L gets old enough to participate. This Christmas I am hoping we are going to have some fun with the a new drawing game from University Games called Googly Eyes (£14.99, suitable from 7+).
"Googly Eyes, the hilarious drawing game involving crazy, googly glasses that challenge your vision and leave you googling for more".
The game comes with a set of playing cards, timer, board, dice, 4 coloured counters, a notepad with a pen and a set of funky glasses with 3 sets of lenses. The principle of the game is very simple: you put Googly Eyes glasses with either green, blue or yellow lenses (depending on the level), set a timer and draw something whilst team players are trying to guess what that is.
"The googly lenses each drastically impair vision, making it much harder to draw, yellow is the easiest, then green and finally the blue lenses which leave the wearer struggling to find the paper and pencil".
L couldn't wait to open the game and was very interested to see what it is about and how to use counters, I think she understands the principle now. Even though it states that the game is suitable from 7 years old I think it can be played with kids younger age as they like to be included!
We have also tried googly glasses with 3 different lenses, yes each of them make it more difficult to draw but I think I have found a loop hole :-)
Googly Eyes certainly seem to be a fun game that will bring together family, friends and even generations! Just cannot wait to play it on Christmas or Boxing Day!
