Cranium Balloon Lagoon Step right up, boys and girls, for the greatest game in the living room! Balloon Lagoon, designed by the creators of Cranium, is possibly more fun than the carnival it emulates. After all, there’s no sticky cotton candy mess, no nauseating rides…but plenty of entertaining activity for everyone. A noisy musical merry-go-round timer keeps the pressure on while players take turns fishing for letters to spell words, collecting matching snacks at the Snack Hut, pressing levers to spin wheels to unscramble pictures, or flipping frogs back into their pond. Players keep score by collecting little plastic balloons–the first person to fill a mover piece with 15 balloons wins. The game includes game board, timer, four carnival games, four player movers, 72 scoring balloons, and a balloon bag. Three AA batteries required (not included). You can pretty much assume that if it’s Cranium, it’s going to be a blast! –Emilie Coulter
Customer Review: This Game Is Fun,,,
We bought Balloon Lagoon as a Christmas present for our four year old granddaughter.It was a big hit with her.She has played at least one game(usually more)almost every day since receiving it with Mom/Dad/Grandma and
or Grandpa.It is a carnival themed game with players earning 0-4 plastic balloons for each activity completed.There are 4 activities:frog flipping,fishing pond,snack hut and completing a picture by pressing levers.There are a few things that could have made this game even better.The plastic balloons are difficult to insert into the player tokens(you really have to push hard on them)and they could have added more words for the fishing pond game.But all in all it is a fun game and unlike some other games it packs back into the box very easily and neatly.

A fun and challenging game for children and adults with children. My grandchildren enjoyed playing this game with their father. They seemed to be realy laughing and enjoying themselves very much. I would highly recommend this game.
