Game Board

The Jump ‘N’ Jam Junglemat is full of some friendly animals, with each one holding a colored shape. As you play the game, listen closely. Sometimes, you’ll hear an animal sound, a color, or shape name. Depending on the game, you may need to find the correct animal, stomp on a shape as it’s called out, or guess the next animal sound in a repeating pattern. But remember to act fast! In each of the games, players need to think and react to the sounds quickly!

Game Sound Effects

Can you hear the animals? The following wild animal sounds can be found in the game:

Tiger

Elephant

Monkey

Crocodile

Frog

Toucan

Each animal has a unique sound, so be sure to listen and get to know each animal by its sound effect!

Select Game

When the GAME button is pressed, the unit will announce the first (default) game. When the GAME button is pressed again, game two will be announced. Each press of the GAME button will toggle through and announce each game, toggling from game 1, game 2, all the way to game 5. After game 5, if the GAME button is pressed again, the unit will toggle back to game 1. To start the desired game, press the START button.

GAME 1 – GUESS ME!

This is a game of simple deductive reasoning, and is perfect for beginners. The game will call out a question and players must “buzz in” by pressing or jumping on the correct answer within 10 seconds. Sample questions might include

What animal has wings?

In this example, the correct answer is the toucan, the only bird in the game. Players need to quickly press (or hop!) on the space with the picture of the toucan to answer the question correctly.

To play with more than one player, simply take turns, so that player 1 tries to answer the first question, then player 2 follows, until each player has had a turn.
