Highlight On 2 New Games Blue Orange Will Release This Spring : Tongues Out ! & Freeze Dance With Chilly .

Always looking for interesting and original components to integrate to their board games , Blue Orange is going to delight children with adorable squishies in their new memory game : Tongues Out ! The game includes 12 squishy pugs with a special feature : when you squeeze a pug , its tongue comes out ! The tongues have different colors because each pug licked a different lollipop … and you are trying to find which lollipop they each ate . To play , children take turn rolling the dice featuring lollipops , then pick 2 pugs and squeeze them to see if their tongues match the colors they rolled . The first player to match correctly 6 pugs and place them on their parklet card wins the game . It ’ s an educational memory game with the added fun of squishing cute chubby pugs ! In a different category , and following the release last year of Where ’ s Squeaky ?, the interactive hideand-seek game , Blue Orange is launching Freeze Dance with Chilly , another active game to make everybody get up and dance ! Squeaky was an adorable little mouse that one child would hide , and others would try to find , listening for clues . She giggles and talks , low at first then louder and louder , until someone finds her . This game has been a big seller for the holidays so it ’ s a great thing that Blue Orange was already working on expanding

the collection . Squeaky ’ s buddy Chilly is featured in the new game and is a singing penguin ! With so much time for in-house entertainment in the last 2 years , freeze dance songs on Youtube , encouraging kids to dance to various tempos and freeze when they are instructed to do so , have accumulated millions of views . Chilly does just that : he has 5 songs to pick from , they are all different with fun dance moves and various actions to follow , and when he says ‘’ Freeze ’’, kids must freeze immediately until he starts singing again . This is a great way for children to be active and play independently from their parents .
