children's game - callodle canoodle whatever?

[Guest sam8988378]

I don't have children around in my everyday life, so I'm really not up on these things. I remember last year seeing a game where kids would pick a card (I think), then act out /draw/sing/dance/whatever was on the card. It looked like fun, and I remember last year seeing someone say that adults were able to join in, too.

 

I didn't get it last year because 1)it was way too late for shipping 2)I'm shopping-challenged. Seriously. I could teach your dog to do everything but housework & cooking, but shopping leaves me feeling as if I'm stuck in traffic.

 

This is why I'm here, last minute, looking for the name of that game, last minute again. Anyone know what it is?

Sounds like a Cranium game try amazon and type in Cranium or they have a web site. Most stores carry their stuff like Walmart

It might be this one but there are others also

I found it! Anything by Cranium would do. Unfortunately, it's out of stock at Wal Mart & Amazon (backordered:shipping date from Target is Dec 31st), Barnes & Noble won't ship by Christmas.

 

I went to the Cranium site where I found their Family Fun game. Definately what I was looking for, but their shipping option to arrive by Christmas is overnight, which costs $27.99 for the $19.99 game!

 

Eeesh, now off to the USPS & UPS sites to see if it's cheaper. If so, then its time to call the store, see if they have it in stock, run out(packing supplies in car, deal with crowds, pack in car & drop off. If not, it's bite the bullet time .

 

I'm beginning to like Festivus more and more.

Sounds like Cadoo that's part of the Cranium games. Target usually carries it. I would buy it at my local store instead of buying online just to avoid ridiculous shipping charges. Good Luck!!

Amazon has some of the others that are in stock Why don't you look those up all them are great games. My sisters family really likes them!

I'd check Target, they usually have the Cranium games--I know ours still has a variety of them avalaible. If not, the Barnes and Noble stores have them on the floor (literally, on the floor under some of the book tables).

They are a lot of fun...oh I think I bought one at Starbucks last year as a stocking stuffer....

KB toys always seems to have that in stock when I've been there.

I have gotten several Cranium games at Target recently, and they always seem to have plenty in stock. As a matter of fact, seems like they had a bunch in top-stock as well. I'd definately try a Target if you have one nearby.
