When we saw an advert for elefun, it looked like a fantastic idea and i really thought it would help with my nephews coordination. How wrong can someone be? The game should be renamed to eleflop for a number of reasons. ~~The Game~~ For anyone that doesn't know, Elefun is a game for children where butterflies are supposed to fly out of the elephants trunk and it's your job to catch as many as you can in your net.

After putting all the butterflies into the elephant you screw the plastic nose onto the body and unroll the four-foot plastic trunk. Give your children a ...  Read the complete review
