Try Simple Simon. It so looks like the beeping game that you had to remember the things it went on and you had to repeat it. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I've done something like this before, where the spelling had to be bang on to get it correct - so play around with spaces, no spaces and think american spelling sometimes... might help! But sorry, can't name the toys you're after Sarah Beth. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

| Oops! I posted that without looking at the quiz. That's not My Simon. My Simon was a round handheld game with four coloured buttons. It played a sequence and you had to play it back. |
