Feel Then Reveal

Description

Before the Mystery Box workshop, identify a real household object by touch, then surprise your partner with a different object.

What to prep

  • Cloth bag
  • Three large safe household objects
Cost: FreeBest time: Anytime

Play guide

  1. 1Put one large familiar object in a cloth bag: a wooden spoon, rolled sock or hairbrush. The guesser feels it without looking.
  2. 2Name a clue such as bristles, a long handle or soft folds, then make a guess and reveal the object.
  3. 3Swap who packs the bag. Try distinguishing two similarly shaped objects once the easy round is familiar.

Success signals

The child describes a felt feature and checks it against a revealed object.

If it's tricky

Reaching into the bag feels uncomfortable: let the child see the object through a small opening first.
