Guess The Object By Feeling It

This is a game for 3+ year-olds. Find a large bag that you cannot see through, for example, a pillowcase.

Next, find a number of objects that are of different sizes and textures. For example a toothbrush, a ball, a TV remote control, a feather, a pine cone, a small cuddly toy, etc.

Show all the objects to your child and then place them in the bag.

Next, say what the object is and ask your child to try and feel for it in the bag.

For slightly older children don’t show the objects at the start of the game and try and describe the object without saying exactly what it is.

This game gets your child thinking about different textures and sizes of objects.
