Kate & I just had some fun with an original Tip It game. Yet another game from Marvin Glass & Associates, Tip It was released in 1965 by Ideal Toys. Players alternate the colored discs in a stack on each small post and then must use the spatula-like tool to remove the disc matching the color they spin. It's wonderful fun to see the little acrobat balance on his nose precariously. Tip It is a well designed game with AWESOME cover art! One of my old school favorites... Mad Men meets The Brady Bunch!

That is awesome cover art, indeed!
We bought this for Micah this past Christmas. The classics are lost in the battery operated, electronic wizardry of the present age. The problem is that agility and dexterity with fingers and such is developed through a VARIETY of mediums other than those Wii related. =P Play ON! -MarkE
Yes, a wonderful "balance" of art and plastic!
