How to play
Call out a color.
Send them to find three things that color and bring them back.
Line the finds up and name each one together.
Swap: let them choose the color for you, and take your time finding it badly.
Finish by putting everything back where it came from — that is part of the game.
What it helps with
Keep it safe
- Set the boundary before you start: which rooms are in, which are out.
Make it different next time
- Hunt for shapes instead of colors: round things, square things.
- Hunt for textures: something soft, something bumpy, something cold.
Cleanup: The final round is returning everything.
