This review is from: The Grinch - Sing Your Heart Out! (Toy)
If it isn't clear from the description, this card game is based on the Grinch, stealing of the Whoville gifts, and singing. There's a "singing detector" and you need to sing loudly enough (and long enough) to trigger it. Okay, so there you have it.
For the simplicity (despite the electronic core of the game, it is simple) you actually have quite a fun game. The kids (nine years old) got a kick out of it. And we had a ball. But there wasn't a lot of interest in returning to the game again a couple days later. The novelty wore off very quickly. We'll see if it returns... Just to note, the kids love to sing anyway, know a fair number of songs, and especially like Christmas songs. The game is probably more interesting to younger children, so I'd especially recommend it for the 4-8 year olds.

This review is from: The Grinch - Sing Your Heart Out! (Toy)
The bottom line on this toy is that it worked inconsistently and erratically, causing undue frustration all around. I am of the mind that too many new games have jumped the shark in trying to be unique and interesting. This is one of them. I do like that the game is cooperative, in that all the players work together, rather than competitively, but unfortunately that well-meaning idea does not outweigh the serious flaws in this toy.

This review is from: The Grinch - Sing Your Heart Out! (Toy)
I bought this game on sale at the end of last year for a quarter of the price for which it is listed today. It was sitting in my closet of future birthday/holiday presents when my five year old son stumbled upon it and liberated it. We played it for the first time on Thanksgiving and my children (ages 11, 8, 5, and 4 years) had a blast. At first the 11-year old wanted no part of it, I'm sure because he deemed Dr. Seuss too babyish, but he couldn't resist joining the fun once he saw the game in action. This is not a game I'd expect children to want to play every night, but mine have requested it most nights since they discovered it. Truth be told they play one or two rounds, which is plenty for everyone in the house as it does tend to get rather loud and scream-y rather than melodic. For what I paid it's a fun game that brings them all together.
The game is a bit hard for the kids to put together, and if roughly handled would not hold up to the constant assembly and dis-assembly it will require. At our house, an adult has been in charge of putting it together and storing the pieces at the end of play. Unlike other reviewers we have had no problems with the sleigh not going on its own. On one song, which I think was a quieter song, possibly Frere Jacques, it didn't go right away and the kids had to sing another verse. The directions are clear that you must sing for 20 seconds and loud, and my goodness do my kids get loud! Overall fun toy that teaches teamwork and taking turns.
