The Price is Right Season 2011 Episode 226 S28 Kids Week Game 1, show # 6396.

The Price is Right season 2011 episode 226, titled S28 Kids Week Game 1, show # 6396, is a special episode that features young contestants playing classic games of the show alongside adult helpers. The episode was first aired on April 25, 2011, and runs for around 45 minutes.

The show opens with the host, Drew Carey, introducing the concept of Kids Week to the audience. He explains that for this special week, children aged 8-14 will be competing on the show with the help of one adult partner. The goal is to help the kids win as much as they can, with all the prize money going to the kids and their families.

The first game of the episode is the classic Plinko, which features a giant wall with slots that contestants can drop chips into. Each slot represents a cash prize, ranging from $0 to $10,000. The child contestant stands at the top of the wall with their adult helper, dropping chips one at a time and hoping to land on the highest prize possible. The tension in the audience is palpable as the chips bounce around on the way down, with some narrowly missing the big payouts.

Next up is the game Switcheroo, which involves matching prices to prizes. The child contestant is shown five small items, each with a price tag. Then, the prices are scrambled and the child has to place them back in the correct order to win a car. This game requires a lot of concentration and memory skills, and the young contestants rise to the challenge.

The third game of the episode is called Any Number, where the child contestant has to guess numbers that make up the price of a car, a grill, and some cash. Each incorrect guess reveals a part of a piggy bank, and if the piggy bank is fully revealed before the correct numbers are guessed, the game is over. Once again, the kids prove to be skilled and lucky, winning some nice prizes.

The fourth game is called It's in the Bag, and it involves guessing the prices of grocery items in order to win money. The child contestant is shown five different bags, each with a different amount of money inside. The bags are labeled with the names of grocery items, and the child has to correctly match the price of each item with the corresponding bag. The stakes get higher as the bags get bigger, and the audience cheers as the kids rack up the cash.

The final game of the episode is the iconic Showcase Showdown, where the two contestants who have won the most prizes and money face off to win the biggest prize of all. The child contestants are helped by their adult partners to bid on a showcase that includes a trip to Hawaii, a new car, and some other high-value items. The bidding is tense and strategic, with both teams trying to outdo each other without going over the total prize value. In the end, one team emerges victorious, and the kids and their families go home with a huge haul of prizes and memories.

Throughout the episode, the energy is high and the excitement is contagious, as the child contestants showcase their skills, knowledge, and luck in front of a live studio audience. The show is a fun and heartwarming tribute to the next generation of game show contestants, and a reminder of the joy and thrill of winning big.
