How to Play

Hold up an object for everyone to see.

Challenge everyone (either individually, in pairs or small groups) to think of as many ways as possible to describe the object. Have them write these descriptions down.

For example, if the object is a basketball: round, bouncy, orange in color, has black lines on it, rough surface, filled with air, made of rubber, can be used in a game of basketball…

Award small prizes to the individual or team with the greatest number of descriptions.

Play several rounds with different objects.
