What's The FlapDoodle About?

Friday May 30, 2008
FlapDoodle GameFor those of you who don't know what "flapdoodle" is, it means nonsense! In accordance with the name, "What's The FlapDoodle About?" is a silly but fun-filled family board game targeted towards kids aged 6 and up. The whole point of the game is to go through the game board or the "FlapDoodle Factory" as it is called, answering questions and doing various activities along the way. By the way, it's the activities that make the game so much fun. What I like about the game is that the tasks are very frivolous and easy to do. Some of the questions asked are "Invent two new ways to wave goodbye and demonstrate them" or "Name something you would never eat in a sandwich". You can only imagine the potential that these questions have to create an uproar.

The kids really had a blast doing the interactive activities like jumping, spinning around and twisting themselves into various shapes - in short, having fun. "What's the Flapdoodle about" turned out to be a wonderful ice breaker which really pepped up our little get-together. There are 230 game cards which ensure a rollicking good time every time you play. The game is available for a suggested retail price of $19.95 at the Wiggity Bang Games online website.
