About the activity
The first person starts the game by saying, “I’m thinking of an animal that begins with the letter …”. The other players then take it in turns to ask questions to try and identify the animal. They can ask any question, so long as the answer can only be “yes” or “no”. For example, does the animal have four legs? Does it have a tail? Is the animal a mammal? Can it fly? Once the animal has been guessed correctly, it’s time to switch roles. Want to make it harder? Don’t give the players the letter clue!
