Memory tray: what was taken away?
A memory game with a tray: study the objects, one is secretly removed – who spots first what is missing?
- Time
- ⏱ 10–15 min
- Difficulty
- ◆ easy
What you need
- A tray
- A cloth
- Various small objects (stones, pens, cutlery …)
- For the shoe version: lots of shoes (in pairs) and a mat or blanket
How to do it
- Put the objects on the tray.
- Everyone looks for an agreed amount of time and memorises everything.
- Take the tray away or cover it, and secretly remove one object.
- The first person to correctly say what is missing gets a point.
Variations
- The number of objects sets the difficulty.
- Shoe memory: instead of a tray, use a pile of paired shoes on a mat. One player leaves the room, the others remove one shoe and hide it where it can't be seen, and the player has to guess which one is missing. If they guess right, they win; the shoe goes back on the pile and the next player leaves the room.
