Can two identical wooden figures weigh differently? With Memory Weights, children discover that not everything can be recognized with their eyes. Sometimes it's enough to pick up two objects, compare them, and trust your own feelings.
The set contains 12 wooden triangular elements that form 6 pairs of equal weight.
The goal of the game is to find the matching pairs by lifting and comparing their weights. The color marking on the bottom allows for easy verification of each choice.
How to play?
- Preparation: The wooden elements are placed on the table with the color marking down and shuffled.
- Compare weights: The player selects two elements, lifts them in turn and judges whether they weigh the same.
- Check the choice: If he thinks he has found a pair, he turns the elements over and compares the colors on the bottom.
- Continue the game: The correctly found pair remains with the player. If the colors are different, the elements are returned to their places.
- Victory: The participant who finds the most pairs wins.
Why do children like this game?
- The surprise with each lift - identical figures can feel different.
- The joy of discovery - the correct pair brings satisfaction and a desire for a new experience.
- Self-check - color markings show whether the guess was correct.
