Hasbro has a new collection of five games called Elefun & Friends for younger kids, and sent us two of them for review. We’ve been having so much fun playing Scatterpillar Scramble and Giraffalaff Limbo! Either or both of these would be a terrific holiday gift!

Scatterpillar Scramble looks easy enough when you first take it out of the box.  Using a pair of plastic tongs, pick up a colored ball and place it in one of his outstretched hands. But then you put in the batteries and turn him on, and Scatterpillar starts dancing, and wiggling, and getting the balls into his hands gets a whole lot harder!  Even my 13 year old said it was fun trying to pick up the balls with the tongs and get them onto his hands. Includes Scatterpillar body, base, 36 colored marbles, 4 tongs, label sheet and instructions. Requires 3 AA batteries (not included). For 2 to 4 players ages 4 and up. WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not For Children Under 3 Years. Price: $19.99. Available from HasbroToyShop.com or in stores.

Giraffalaff Limbo is the hilarious bend over backwards game! Assemble the green support poles, clip on the leaves, and hang Giraffalaff’s bar from the highest set of leaves. The spinner says which of 6 moves to use to get underneath him without knocking him down- classic limbo, crab walk, crawl, giraffe walk, bend forward or backward. As you limbo, you’ll hear steel drum-type music. Knock Giraffalaff down and he erupts into hilarious giggles! Includes Giraffalaff plaque with 2 clips, 3 foam tubes, electronic module with support tube, 8 leaf bar supports, two 3-piece limbo poles, two bases, spinner and instructions. Assembly required. Requires 2 C batteries (not included). For 2 or more players ages 3 and up. Price: $27.99 Available from HasbroToyShop.com or in stores.
