Okonomiyaki Game

@kidschallengeclub♬ dear future husband – 여울

My friend transformed into okonomiyaki! Let me introduce the Okonomiyaki Game.

Work in pairs: one person plays the okonomiyaki, and the other is the cook.

The okonomiyaki player lies face down and tries to hold their position so they don’t get flipped over.

The cook’s job is to flip the okonomiyaki by adjusting force and angle.

Set it up in a space with mats, and adding a time limit can make it more fun.

Give it a try!

Cooperation-Required Cup Game

@.vs9086

This time it’s a “cooperation-required cup game”! Materials: • 4 strings • 1 rubber band • Paper or plastic cups How to play: • Attach the 4 strings to the rubber band. • Line up the paper cups. • Tug the rubber band from four directions to grip the cup and stack them into a pyramid. This game builds fine hand control and concentration. Plus, one person can take the lead by giving instructions, and the other listens and responds. You can’t do it unless the two of you work together. My second son isn’t very cooperative and hasn’t really had experiences of accomplishing something together with friends, so I hope that, even through play, he can gradually gain experiences of achieving something with someone else. If you have paper cups, you can also branch out into other games like: • Sport stacking • Bowling ————— We share fun brain-boosting activities that elementary schoolers will get more absorbed in than a Switch—and that help grow their talents!

It’s hard to reach goals alone! Here’s a cup game that requires teamwork.

It’s a game idea where you and your friends coordinate your timing to grab and move cups.

Once you tie four strings to a rubber band, you’re ready to go! Two people work in sync to grip a cup.

Try building a pyramid or stacking them high—get creative with different arrangements.

The subtle balance of force and tiny timing mismatches that make the cups not move as you want can be surprisingly addictive!

Let’s look at the map illustration and search for the treasure!

Let's look at the map illustration and search for the treasure!

No text! The illustration of a map on the cards is your clue! Here’s an idea where you work together to find treasure.

Using the illustrations and the map on the cards, team up with your friends to track down the treasure! Use the map as a hint to locate the next clue card.

If you study the map carefully, you should be able to decode where the next clue card is hidden.

It’s a game that seems perfect for building kids’ observation skills while keeping them excited.

It would be great for family play, and it also sounds fun to try with friends.

scrubbing brush

A tawashi scrubbing brush is a strong ally in the kitchen for scouring off grime, starting with burnt-on residue from frying pans.

Most people have probably touched one or at least seen one.

But when you touch a tawashi without seeing it, you might be startled by its hard, prickly feel.

The person putting their hand in will feel a little thrill, and onlookers will get a kick out of watching them gingerly touch the brush.

They come in a wide variety of shapes—round, long, and more—and their easy availability is another appealing point.

Drawing Telephone Game

SixTONES – Drawing Telephone Game: Who’s the Master Artist!?
Drawing Telephone Game

A game of telephone is where you pass along a prompt in various ways—saying it out loud in order, tracing letters on someone’s back, mouthing the words, and so on.

This version, “Drawing Telephone,” passes the message through drawings.

You draw the prompt you were given, pass it to the next person to guess what the drawing is, and if the final answer matches the original prompt, you’re good! Start with simple, single-item prompts like “dog” or “apple,” then gradually try prompts that include different actions.

How reliably the message gets through depends on everyone’s drawing skills.

Deciding where to place the best artist in the order is a key strategic choice.

It’s a game guaranteed to cause fits of laughter when the drawings just don’t quite get the point across.

The card game Daifugō

Let's learn the 'Just Watch FKC' Trump Card Game [Daifugō] ☆ For Kids ☆ Daihinmin
The card game Daifugō

Let’s align on the rules before we start! We’d like to introduce the card game Daifugō (Grand Millionaire).

It’s a card game where you can learn the rules while thinking about your strategy! Because rules may vary by region or household, it’s important to confirm them carefully before the game and make sure everyone agrees before starting.

Doing so prevents rule violations and helps the game proceed smoothly and enjoyably, so be sure to check.

It’s a deep game with a charm that makes you want to play again and again.

Definitely try incorporating it into your playtime!
