Choose Just Three

Description

Make a real small choice together using a budget: which three household items deserve space in a small outing bag?

What to prep

  • Five ordinary safe household items
Cost: FreeBest time: Anytime

Play guide

  1. 1Put five safe items on the table: book, jumper, snack box, small game and notebook. For this tabletop game, choose just three.
  2. 2Each choose three and give one practical reason for a choice. Listen for a reason you had not considered.
  3. 3Add a concrete condition, such as "we will wait indoors for an hour." Rechoose together and explain one change.

Success signals

A choice changes in response to a specific new constraint or another person's reason.

If it's tricky

Five objects feel like work: choose between a book and a small game for a ten-minute wait.
