Don’t Wake Daddy

The beloved Don’t Wake Daddy game from the 90s is ready for a whole new generation! Now that millennials are becoming parents, nostalgic relaunches of their favorite childhood games are making a lasting impact. Players take turns tiptoeing around the house trying not to wake Daddy on their way to a midnight snack! The first player to make it to the fridge wins… but watch out, Daddy might JUMP awake before you can get there!

Evaluation comments:

“What a hilarious name for a game! Bright, colorful packaging makes it clear right away that this game is meant to be fun and silly. My kids thought the daddy figure was hilarious, and everything inside is easy to identify and set up – no lengthy set-up before the game can begin.”

“This is such a fun game! It helps kids practice counting, turntaking, and following simple rules, all without needing any reading skills.”

“Really perfect for my 4 and 5-year-old. The suspense factor keeps kids engaged longer than many beginner board games.”

“This game is super silly and fun, a bit suspenseful (you never know when Daddy will wake up) and great for family game night.”

“This is a great first game for young children as it is fast paced, will make everyone laugh and is simple.”

“Children learn math skills, number recognition and counting. They learn social skills such as taking turns, patience, and good sportsmanship.”

“Pressing the button while waiting to see if Daddy pops up never gets old! My kids laughed each time and request to play again. Even my 4-year-old who often gets bored with games quickly.”

“A solid family-friendly option for preschool households.”

“Game rounds are short, which works well for young attention spans, and we enjoyed it just as much as the kids. It’s loud, silly, and full of laughter – exactly what you want for family game night.”
