It's a good guessing game which helps develop your child's thinking
ability.
What you need
Players
What to do
Think of an object or person that is 'IT'.
The categories in this
game are Animal (people, animals, insects, etc.), Vegetable (plants) and
Mineral (iron, innate objects).
Your children can then ask 20 questions to try and determine what
'IT' is.
Except for the first question, which traditionally asks if it
is 'Animal, Vegetable or Mineral', all the other questions are just
answered with a 'Yes' or a 'No'.
The person being asked the questions keeps track of the number of
questions asked.
If there is more than one person asking the questions,
the first person to guess the answer on or before the 20th questions has
the next turn.
If you find your children are getting 'bogged down' by the questions,
give them some clues until they begin to understand the game!
