Kim’s Game – How Do We Remember What We See?
Part of
This is a classic children’s game to test how good we are at remembering the things we have seen using different objects from around your house.
See if older ones can have a think and try to remember the object that was missing. You could give some clues if it’s tricky. Wee ones love to lift off the cover and reveal what was hiding. They might want to have a shot at testing you!
Make it harder for older ones by taking more than one item at a time or swapping the positions of items!
Watch our video and download our activity sheet for more detailed instructions.


For older children, try out DCA’s Draw a Tree, Make a Forest activity, based on the artist Abel Rodriguez’s work in their Seized By The Left Hand exhibition. Rodriguez drew forests using only his memories of them. How good do you think you are at drawing from memory? Imagine a forest and try this activity sheet drawing trees from only what you can remember.
