Electronic Talking Silly 6 Pins Sally, Stevie, Stanley, Sophie, Stewie, and Sid are six colorful, lightweight bowling pins–each with their own personality–that talk to kids while they bowl. Taunts such as “C’mon! Roll the ball already!” get kids started, and phrases such as “Whew! That was close,” keep them aiming for the pins. Bells, whistles, and cheers are heard if a spare or strike is bowled. The tan plastic base has six colored circles to hold the pins in place, but it is not required that colors match up for a game to begin. Silly 6 Pins only keeps score one frame (two balls) at a time, so keep a pad of paper nearby if you’re playing as a family. Three AA batteries are required, but not included. –Pam Lauer
Customer Review: A BIT LOUD!!!
I bought this for my 3 year old last year. He has not played with it much and I doubt if he can even locate a couple of the pins! He played with it for about 2 weeks and soon grew tired of setting them up over and over again, while I grew tired of the noise they made when he would “strike”. I guess the final straw came when he hit his couisn with one of the exremely hard pins. Well, so much for Silly Pins….
Customer Review: Great for a rainy day……
At this very moment, as Hurricane Dennis blows tropical storm winds and rain outside, my sons and husband are having a blast with this game.
After one round each of Candyland and Chutes and Ladders, hubby pulled out this long forgotten toy. Voila! Something the 5 year old and 2 year old can both play (as well as the 36 year old, apparently).
Is it loud? Yes! Is it disorganized? Of course! As the mother of two little boys, I can tell you – that’s what they love about it!
Save it for your next rainy day. You won’t regret it.
