What's in Ned's Head?

I have had one of these at my house for a while but over the years and moving a few times, some of the pieces went missing out of the head and put in with other toys and lost. All of my grandchildren have loved playing with it over the years (even with missing pieces) so I decided to get them one for their house. It is so simple and just enough gross factor to make it fun for even the youngest. No reading is required, just grab a card and reach in and grab the object that matches the card. Sometimes we play free for all where we all reach in and grab at once and sometimes we set a timer and take turns. I will say, storing it is not the easiest since it is big and bulky but Ned has a special place in my game closet and the head itself has held up perfectly for probably over 15 years now.

Such a cute and fun game for kids. My best friend recommended I buy this for my daughter and it was an instant hit. All of the kids that come over absolutely love playing!

Awesome! I ordered this on 12/9 knowing it said I would receive it 12/26-1/4. I wasn’t sure if I would get it but I kept the faith and I am so glad I did! My 27 year old wanted me to get this for his 7 year old because he had such fond memories of it when he was a child and knew I loved it back in the day! You made my day! Brand new! All parts and instructions included! Awesome seller! Thanks for coming through!

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.

Great family game! I purchased two of these for my nieces and nephews for Halloween (with all the trick-or-treating candy I like to give a bunch of fun games and toys instead of more sugar). My boys (ages 2 and 4) recently received this game and love playing. Everyone gets to play at the same time so it keeps everyone’s interest (my 2 year old doesn’t get antsy waiting his turn) and the playing cards have pictures on them not words so the kids in my house feel independent. It’s a great game and a lot of fun for everyone. It’s a winner with the adults and the kids!

Love this game! So much fun!

Excellent

Even though I didn't place my order until December 18, my order was delivered in time for Christmas. I was not sure if it was a good toy, but it was a winner with my young grandchildren (ages 3 and 5). They really like it, and it's easy for them to understand and play. The toy has an odd assortment of objects, and a few of them are a bit gross, but kids are okay with that (and, besides, they're only plastic). Even though there are blank cards so people can add their own objects, I thought there could have been more.

Juego muy divertido para todas las edades.

Beaucoup de plaisi

Such an amazing game to play with kids who are too cool to play games. I use in my Speech Therapy sessions and find its very motivating for the kids- especially the 6-8 yr old boys. I have added my own "things" to find in Neds head too. Great game.

Product was shipped from the US very quickly, although pricey freight before Xmas, it was worth it! My son loves this and the game is really good!! Highly recommended! Amazon was great!

Kids loves it
