How to Play

  • Put several different things on the table or floor. Ask your child to close her eyes as you take one thing away.
  • Then ask her to open her eyes and guess which one was removed.
  • Start by using only two items. Later, to make the game harder, you may use more things.
  • Let your child have a turn at taking things away. Then, you guess which one has been removed. Stop playing when the game is no longer fun for you or your child.
