Marbles Gift Wrap

 

Marbles offers gift wrapping on this brainy product for only $1!
We haven’t lost our minds, we just know how nice it is to avoid those dull scissors and tape that won’t tear. To add gift wrapping to your order, just select the “yes” button under the “add gift wrap” section.

Admittedly, one of the reasons we love Rock the Beat so much is because we’re not-so-closeted Queen freaks. Rock legends aside, this rapid gesture game also happens to be good for the brain. This is how it works: Players pound and clap to the tune of We Will Rock You and then the lead player substitutes a gesture from a comically-illustrated card for the clap. The next player has to remember and repeat the gesture and so on. This addictive party game forces your brain to multitask and is much harder than it looks, especially if there are adult beverages being served at the aforementioned party.

Brain Health Expert Says:

"This game exercises auditory and memory centers in the brain as you listen to simple rhythms and mimic songs and actions performed by others."

How to Play:

Each player receives a Gesture Card. All players begin creating the beat (think of Queen’s song “We Will Rock You” or Boom-Boom, Clap! Boom-Boom, Clap!). Once the rhythm has been established, the first player substitutes a gesture for the clap—twice. The first time, they use their own gesture in place of the clap. The second time, they use another player’s gesture. That player then repeats their gesture, and “passes” to another player by using that player’s gesture. Players receive a Penalty Card for breaking the rhythm or using the wrong gesture.

How to Win:

Player with the fewest penalty cards at the end of the game is the winner.
