Don't Laugh Game from Drummond Park for Toysrus

I have a joke for you:-  Which creature goes to the toilet eight times a day?




Answer- An Octo-poos

Did you laugh????????????? 
Laughter releases endorphins, giving us the ‘feel good factor’
Acts as aerobic exercise and is like ‘internal jogging’
Unleashes inhibitions, breaks down barriers
Great team building tool encourages better communication
Helps boost our immune system which helps us resist disease
Tones muscles, improves respiration and circulation
Encourages positive thinking and creativity
Relaxes the whole body by reducing stress and tension


Well guess what that joke was from the board game DON'T LAUGH and if you did laugh then WARNING - if you are a competitive at games and always want to win you may not win this one.

Don't Laugh tries to make you giggle in order to loose!  Encouraging interactive fun for all the family, each player in turn reads out a joke and then uses one or more sound effects to push the other poker-faced players over-the-edge and into fits of laughter and giggles!


CONTENTS

This interactive game consists of 200 joke cards, playing board, 4 playing pieces including a magic microphone to give you the ammunition to make everyone else playing giggle.  You also need (yep you've guessed it batteries) this time 3 AAA.  2-6 players are encouraged to play from 8+ 

The game was too difficult for Savana to understand the jokes but Bailey (age 7) who is an avid fan of Horrid Henry and his scheming tricks and jokes began with great delight reading out jokes to get others to laugh.

some of the jokes in the game included:-

DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE VICAR WHO TURNED UP AT THE WRONG FUNERAL?
He made a grave error!

WHY IS IT EASY TO FOOL A SHARK?
Because the swallow everything

DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE MAN WHO BOUGHT A PAPER SHOP?
It blew away


Did you laugh?

Well if not then you do have the fateful magic microphone which I must admit was by far the most amusing part of the game.  To both Bailey and Savana's delight changing the sound of their voice and creating fart and belching sounds on the machine had them in hysterics for hours - which meant they digressed from the game far too quickly and never finished a game.  I got Bailey to play again with some older children who did play a little longer however, I think this game is expensive at £19.99 for what it is, especially as once you have heard the joke you are guaranteed not to laugh at it again.

Both myself and Bailey gave the game a 2.5 out of 5

Oh and one last thing the mini toyologists have one more message for you!
