Tongues Out! A Squishy Memory Color Matching Game by Blue Orange

The pugs ate all the lollipops, and their tongues are dyed the colors of those treats. Tongues Out! transforms that playful setup into a tactile memory game that kids intuitively grasp. With 12 squishy pugs, lively dog park boards, and two color dice, this cheerful activity invites little hands to squeeze, match, and scoot toward victory. The design balances whimsy with straightforward rules, creating a game that feels cozy, engaging, and just a touch strategic for families and classrooms alike.
