We played this game in the early sixties. Im not sure when I quit seeing the game in stores. My children never played this game. It seemed to not be a "thing" anymore.

I searched out this video because I was thinking about my mother teaching the Cootie game to me when I was 3 years old back in 1973.

I know this channel is a little old but I thought I would tell you about mine. I bought mine at a flee market and I seen the parts inside and noticed it had a lot more parts so I figured that they probably lost some and had to get a second one to get the hole game. I looked in the internet and found one with the colors I had. After that I started looking at the other parts and there was another complete set. So I actually got 2 complete sets. I looked in the computer and found one that has those exact colors. I think I bought the box for around 5 bucks

I was hoping to see an assembled Cootie.
