Hullabaloo will get the whole family moving. As kids ages four
and up bounce, spin, and jump between the colorful pads, they'll
learn new shapes, colors, and words. They'll also hone their
listening skills --especially when they "freeze" and wait to see
if they're a winner at the end. Though it's geared towards kids
ages four and up, even two-year olds will want to play along.
Though younger kids might not "get" everything, they'll still
have a great time -- especially dancing to the "funky" music at
the beginning and end of each quick-moving round. Though kids can
play Hullaballoo among themselves, parents will enjoy the
silliness and the exercise!

The Good: Catchy music, clever concept, easy to learn and play.
The Bad: Console might not be loud enough if your surroundings
are noisy.
In a Nutshell: Hours of goofy yet educational fun. At a Glance
Ages: 4 and up
Requires: Three AA batteries, Phillips screwdriver
Easy to Learn; Fun to Play
The Hullaballo console is made of sturdy plastic with
brightly-colored buttons that are easy for little fingers to
find. Batteries aren't included and parents will need to put
those in with the help of a screwdriver before play can start.
The easy-to-read, illustrated instructions tell you how to play
the game, which is a snap to learn. The console also clearly
announces the rules of the game each time you turn it on. (It
also plays a bouncy song at the beginning of each round that will
stick in your head long after the game is over.)
Do a Funky Dance!
The talking musical console adds an element of excitement and
unpredicability to the game. You never know what it will tell you
to do next! The catchy music and the instructions to "do a funky
dance!" at the end of the rounds especially appeal to kids.
(Later, when you're not even playing the game, you can say, "Do a
funky dance!" and they'll start dancing excitedly all over
again.) The pleasing pallette of colors in Hullabaloo are
appealing to the eye, from the purple, green, and red console to
the multicolored play pads with their slightly retro images.
These brightly-colored, sizeable play pads are hard to lose.Yet
they are also easy to put away when the game is over.
Get Your Goof On
We especially enjoyed doing the funky dance at the end. We would
even do a funky dance at the beginning of each round too-- the
music is so catchy you just can't help it! At times, we wished
the maximum volume of the console was higher. We also would have
appreciated being able to put the batteries in without using a
screwdriver. But overall, we found this game to be fun and
energizing, with just the right a of goofiness thrown in. It
proceeds at a good pace -- slow enough so that kids have time to
process the console's spoken directions, but fast enough to keep
things exciting. The rounds are short so you don't get bored. And
there are thousands of combinations of moves so you'll probably
never play the same round again, not matter how many times you
play!
