How to play detective?

To solve the case of the missing cake, the investigator needs to find out 3 key points:

• who ate the cake
• with what drink
• what time of day did this happen?

There can be many versions, because the detective has 6 suspects and each of them could commit a crime whenever he wanted, and the cake can be washed down not only with water, but also, for example, with juice or lemonade. Will your child be the first to make the correct guess?

The game requires preliminary preparation: stick stickers on the cube and the bases for the chips in accordance with the instructions, separate the character figures and pieces of furniture from the cardboard blanks. Distribute all elements as specified in the rules. Each detective participant will also need a piece of paper from a special notebook and a pencil to make important notes, which no professional detective can do without.

The first player to go is the one who last ate everyone's favorite dessert - cake. The memory of how sad it is when the treat runs out is still fresh in this participant's mind. Players take turns, performing the actions that the die determines for them: look under any piece of furniture, under some piece with a character, move a few steps along the drawn tracks. Everyone tries to be the first to solve the crime. He is helped in this by his notes, which he makes during the game (noting drinks and times that do not correspond to the conditions of the crime).

Using the method of elimination, participants try to find answers to the three main questions of the game - who, when and with what drink ate the piece of cake that the troublemaker was not supposed to eat. The winner is the participant who is the first to make a correct guess, but if his version turns out to be wrong, then he drops out of the game (he finds out the answer himself, without telling it to the others).

Remove the furniture and characters from the bases, mix up all the pieces and play again! Each time the detective has a different correct answer.

This entertainment develops logic, memory and attentiveness in children. In addition, they learn to accept their victories and defeats with dignity. And, of course, it’s just a fun activity that lifts everyone’s spirits!
