Don’t Wake Daddy

Product description

Children’s game in which players move by drawing cards and moving to the matching space. If you land on a picture-number space then you have to risk waking Daddy. Daddy is in his bed, a spring-loaded molded plastic gizmo. If you did something that might cause him to stir, you have to press the snooze button on his alarm clock a specified number of times. Daddy might sleep through it… but he might sit up suddenly and send his nightcap flying. And send the kid who woke him up back to bed .

Shhh! If you can sneak past sleeping Daddy without waking him, you can have that midnight snack you’re craving. But it’s going to be tough–there are roadblocks everywhere. Don’t step on the cat’s tail! And watch out for those roller blades that didn’t get put away! The first person to slip around all these obstreperous obstacles to get to the fridge wins. Players spin a spinner to determine what color space they’ll move to. If the player’s card doesn’t match the picture on the space, Daddy’s alarm clock button must be pushed the number of times indicated. Just hope that Daddy will sleep through the alarm. If not, he’ll pop up and make his nightcap fly off! The game includes “Daddy” in a 9-by-5-inch plastic bed, gameboard, mover bases, deck of cards, spinner, and instructions (English and Spanish). For two to four players. –Emilie Coulter
