A handmade classic turned into an eco-friendly and endlessly fun game
San Francisco, CA - The latest addition to Blue Orange Games' Pocket
Collection will be easy to spot among the company's 9 new 2012 games
debuting at this year's New York Toy Fair. A folded game with bold colors
and eye-catching designs, Blue Orange Games is excited to introduce
Flapz!
Inspired by the beloved schoolyard activity, Blue Orange maximized its fun
factor by creating a whopping 96 commands that range from factoids, to
hilarious performances, to acts of imagination. In a game of Flapz!, you
may be asked to:
1. Announce the daily specials at a restaurant for witches and goblins
2. Pantomime blowing a giant imaginary bubble
3. Spell a player's name backwards
As the challenges change with situations and players, no two games of
Flapz will ever be the same!
Bendable, light as a feather, and no bigger than their hand, kids will be amazed at how much fun they'll
have playing Flapz! It easily slips into binders, fits comfortably inside any pocket and is ready to be
whipped out at any moment for guaranteed giggles and head-scratching challenges. You can even put it in
an envelope and mail it to someone special for a unique surprise gift.
The secret behind Flapz! is its innovative material. Resembling
paper, Tyvek® far surpasses it in terms of flexible durability.
Waterproof, impossible to tear and completely recyclable, Tyvek®
makes Flapz! the ideal way to play this familiar origami-style game.
Flapz! brings out the best in kids as it gets them doing what they
love the most: storytelling, blinking contests, rhyming, memory
challenges, goofy dancing…the list goes on! Every game will
mentally stimulate, titillate and get kids moving.
As players serve
up challenges with hand movements, Flapz! reinforces fine motor
and gross motor skills, while also encouraging cooperation, and
developing listening skills. In addition, Flapz! is an excellent tool
for dramatic play and self-expression. From recess to family trips,
Flapz! can be played with anyone, anytime, anywhere.
