Age: 3+
Heads Talk Tails Walk is a delightfully silly, engaging, and interactive game for kids ages 3+. Not only will you get to practice animal sounds (What does a dog say?) but also what movements are characteristic of an animal (Snake, Monkey, Elephant) all while being active and getting those wiggles out!

Put the body tiles in a face up stack in the middle of the playing area. Then shuffle the head tiles and lay them face down forming a circle around the tails. The object of the game is to collect the most head & tail matches. To do so flip a head tile, if it matches the body then congratulations the matched set is yours. 
However if the head does not match the tail, the fun begins! You must now walk (or hop, or stomp) around the table (circle, rug, whatever you're playing the game on) talking like the head and walking like the tail. Youngest player goes first! Don’t worry they may just give you valuable information for your turn…

Once all the head and tail tiles have been matched. Count up your sets and the person with the most matching pairs wins the game. You’ll find this game is not really about winning but the fun you’ll be having while playing the game! Do you think you will recreate the best charade  of a meowing T-Rex or a hissing Elephant?  ​
