Presents Come From the South Pole, Too

When it’s soooo hot outside, it pays to think cool. And what’s cooler than birds in tiny tuxedos? And is my kids’ obsession with them purely from Madagascar or is he a budding Antarctic explorer? Either way, Pengoloo from Blue Orange caught my eye. Two to six kids ages 4 and up can waddle up to play this $24.95 game, where children roll colorful dice then attempt to locate a similarly shaded egg hidden within the 12 penguins. What begins as a game of chance develops into a memory exercise, and the first to collect six of the penguins wins. A single eggspedition only takes 10 to 15 minutes.
