Don't Wake Oscar!
2–4 players · 0 min · 4+
"Don't wake Oscar the Grouch" is the name of the game in which players collect rubbish from the playground while Oscar snoozes in his bin.
Playing as Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Elmo, and Count von Count, players try to fill their rubbish bin before a pop-up plastic figure of Oscar the Grouch pops out of his trash can.
Young children will delight in this game of color matching, shape sorting and suspense as they try to be the first to fill their bin. But beware, if Oscar awakes during a player's turn, back the rubbish goes until the next turn.
The first child to fill his bin is the winner.
