Everything you need to play this game

Random items easily to hand
(Optional) Paper and pen

A step-by-step guide to play the game

Put the items of choice in front of the player (on a table or the floor).

The player has 2 minutes to memorize all the items.

Items get put away and the player - with their eyes closed - has 1 minute to remember the items. Afterwards, ask the player to write as much items down as possible.

To conclude, check with the player how many of the items he/she was able to remember. Then continue the game with another player, and different items.

Simple but fun! The objects on the table can also start a discussion, so you can choose them according to the topic you want to discuss. Thanks for sharing this game Street Child United, Eswari and Nagalaksmi.
