Shape Hunt
Activity, Stage 1 – Shapes
This game is similar to I Spy. It can be played anywhere and at any time.
The setup
One person sees a shape, and then gives clues about the object’s description and position to the other person.
Player 1: “I see something that has a large blue circle.”
Player 2: “Is it that bicycle wheel?”
Player 1: “No. It is in the middle of a wall.”
Player 2: “I see it! It’s the clock!”
Variations

-
Take turns with your child in the two roles. Being able to give good clues is just as important as discovering an object from some clues.
Start with simple shapes, add size and color, and then add shapes inside of shapes or other arrangements. Add in information about its position relative to other objects.
