Toys and Games Reviews of What's in Ned's Head?
Customer Review: Ned's head fun for the young ones
Summary: 4 Stars
Ned's head is a game with a large soft head. An assortment of gross stuff is put inside ned's head and the 2 to 4 players are dealt one card each with pictures of the items in the head. They all then reach into neds head through the closest hole to them (2 sides of the mouth and 2 ear holes) The first player to successfully find their item is the winner of the game.
I purchased this game to play with my 6, 7, and 9 year old. The young ones seem to enjoy it but the 9 year old declared it boring after the first 5 minutes. When I ordered this I envisioned a head that was stuffed with fluff and all the items stuffed back into little cubbie holes in the head so you had to find them, kind of like a hand puppet fit. Instead the head is a large hollow cave that does not pop out all nice and fluffy like the picture on the box. Rather, it kind of sags and sinks in. It has some sort of wire type device to hold the head out, I think it might be some sort of boning. (like the underwire on a bra). However, the support structure is encased in fabric and not a hazzard in normal use.
The items that come with the head are a large tooth, neds flippy frog, a silly ball, ned's lab rat, neds lost lunch (rubber vomit), a rubber alien, a loose screw, a giant ant, a spider ring, a little rubber pig, fried egg, a worm, moldy cheese, a dirty ear wax q-tip, a tongue, and several blank cards to add your own disgusting things.
This game is appropriate for ages 4 and up and I would recommend these guidelines be kept because some of the items are small (like the ball) and could definately present a choking hazzard.
I could see this being popular with the kindergarten preschool, and maybe 1st grade crowd, but above that probably not.
The good thing about this game is the rules are easy to follow and can be taught within just a few seconds. Also, this game helps with tactile exploration and differentiation in a nice clean and fun way (not like sand and water tables). Sensory integration dysfunction is such a prevalant diagnosis these days in young children, encouraging the development of the tactile sense in this way could be a very positive developmental tool.
