Materials

Bag of objects: toothbrush, ball, fork, spoon, washcloth; blindfold

Procedures

1. Seat children in a quiet corner or at a small table. Talk about the secret bag.

2. Begin by blindfolding one child and have him/her choose an object out of the bag. While blindfolded, he/she should name it and then describe or show what it does. The teacher and other children can ask the blindfolded child questions about how the object feels and what it is made of. If he/she can't name the object, remove the blindfold and ask the child to show how it is used. Have the child repeat the object's name.

3. Continue having each child take turns digging into the secret bag and naming and demonstrating the use of the found object.

Variation

To do as a large group activity, involve the children in giving clues to the blindfolded child (color, sound it starts with, where it's used, etc).
