Fang mich!

where is the fox hiding?

 

20 double sided picture cards show a big animal on the front side and another, smaller image of another animal on the back side. 19 of those cards are hidden by players anywhere in the room; if you want to, you can expand the area for searching to the whole house or also include the garden. Regardless where you hide the cards, you must take care to always place them with the side showing the big animal facing upwards.

One player then begins the proper game; he turns over the last remaining card and names the animal that is portrayed on the backside. Do the players all know all the animals: cat - crocodile - cow - elephant - fox - frog - giraffe - goat - hare - horse - lady bug - lion - mouse - owl - parrot - sheep - snail - stag beetle - tiger - wolf? The card with this animal must now be found. If a player has found the correct card, he announces this with “here it is hiding!” If you find cards, that do show another animal than the wanted one, you put it back and memorize the location. If you found the correct card, you keep it; you are the winner of the round and turn over your card. Then you name the animal depicted on the backside, which is now the currently wanted one and is searched for by all players. When all the animals have been found, you win with most cards.

A memo and spotting game with lots of exercise! The animals are depicted slightly abstract but are well recognizable all the same; the choice of hiding place is left to players’ discretion, which facilitates memorizing. Players can hide the cards together or you give some cards to each player who then hides them by himself. An attractive game for toddlers!
