With the Elefun Game, things are gettin' wild!

[JazzyTheSnowman]

Elefun, Elefun, we're havin' Elefun, we're gettin' wild havin' Elefun fun! We're goin' crazy catchin' all the butterflies, catch 'em all to win, playin' Elefun fun!

Frooooooooooooooooooooooooooom Elefun and friends!

Seriously - is it unreasonable to LOVE THIS ADVERT?! I've got it as my ringtone. I actually went out of my way to download the advert from Youtube, then convert it to a sound file, then put it on my iPhone, then use an app to convert it to a ringtone, then put it BACK on my computer just so I could load it as a new ringtone in iTunes for it to go BACK onto my iPhone.

It's all I've been singing, DS1 dances to it every tiem it starts... it's infectious! AIBU?! DP is the same as me!

*time. Trust me not to proofread!

Er.... Okaaaaay!

YANBU

And for those sad people with no TV:

YABU it's irritating and the stupid game doesn't work

Actually, I have a Q about Elefun.

I bought ours 2nd hand a while ago, and noticed recently that we don;t have any blue butterflies. Now, my friend doesn't have any blue butterflies either and she bought hers new.

Are there not meant to be any blue butterflies then?

I don't think so - I dont actually have it, but I'm thinking of getting it for my DS :D The advert alone sells it!

We love the song too, and even make up our own lyrics :)

Oooh what are your lyrics for it?!

The advert is more fun than the actual game could ever dream of being.
I'm genuinely surprised that they've not been done for false advertising, if it was true to life the advert would last around an hour as that's the time it takes to pathetically puff one butterfly out.

I must have bought every brand/type of battery out there. Still nothing. It's so shit.

Don't get Elefun, it is a shit game.

we too love the song

It should be just called 'Ele' IMO.

Elefun works fine for us. DD a bit small to catch the butterflies, prefers to run around with the net over her head but it's a good game to bring out when small friends are here. We get plenty of butterflys flying out and not too much waiting.
No blue ones though!

We're thinking of getting the advertised slinky one for christmas, anyone got that?

THANK YOU! I now have the lyrics!

I'm going to learn the words and sing along next time.

Oh and I love the Hungry Hippos song too

Im sure i read on here someone converted tge blowy thing to run off the mains or a big fuck off battery and then it definetely made it worth playing...

Having been witness to a bunch of 4/5 yo pulling faces at it I can see why some enterprising soul pimped it up

Sparkling I am crying with laughter at "It should be just called 'Ele' IMO."

Honestly, real tears. Spot on!

Elefun works so much better if you cut about 6 inches off the end of the tube. And you need good quality batteries, poundland ones just don't do the job.

There's no blue butterflies because the nets are pink, orange, green and yellow. So the butterflies are those colours too BikeRunSki.

I love that game.

That's for that op.

I want to sleep and now I have fucking ele fucking fun in my noodle.

Even 4yo DD sighed and said "Mummy, this music makes me hate" last time it came on.

Ah Googol, nets are blue, red, green and yellow, as are my friend's. And we both have red, yellow ans green butterflies only.

We've brought ds snackin safari because we love the advert so much! He's nearly 2, the game is actually for me and dh!

yes YABFU. I hate that advert with a passion, and don't they advertise gator golf and fucking hungry hippos with the same song, just replace words??? GGGRRRRRRRRRRR. You and your DP must be made for each other

I wish it made my 4yo dd hate!!!

She sings it over and over again until it gets in my head on purpose and if that isn't sufficiently irritating she starts singing 'play doh doh doh doh doh doh doh' from the princess castle play doh advert. If she wasn't going to be Mary in the nativity I would trade her in .
