Red Lolly Yellow Lolly Review

How many times can you say “Red Lolly Yellow Lolly” without messing up? This game of the same name will have your tongue twisting as you try to say the color on the light-up lollipop followed by the name of the matching image on the card at play. There are two sets of cards. Blue cards show four images: Lolly, Bunny, Baby, and Candy. The purple cards show four more images: Puppy, Berry, Cookie, and Pony. Each image is randomly colored in yellow, red, green, or blue. 

The first player flips a card and presses the start button on the lollipop. Quickly say the color on the lollipop followed by the name of the image that matches that color. Each time a new color flashes, the player repeats these steps. While this goes on, the other players take turns spinning the spinner and performing actions. If it’s a pass right, the person holding the lollipop passes it to the player on their right. If it’s a pass left, pass the lollipop to the left. A flip means that any player not holding the lollipop flips over a new card. And spin means that you spin the spinner again. When the lollipop jingle plays, whoever is holding the lollipop wins the card. 

The lollipop might also get passed if the player holding it messes up by not pronouncing a word correctly, missing or skipping a color, or saying the wrong word. 

When starting a new round, flip over a new card. Play continues in this manner until one player has collected five cards.

The game comes with a flashing lollipop, two AAA batteries, 24 cards, a spinner, and instructions. You can play the game with two to six players ages 7 and up.
