Challenge 33: Play “Guess the Fruit”
Here’s a fun game you can play with your friends and the best part is cleaning up when you’re done – you get to eat the game pieces! Fill a basket with different types of fruit and cover it up with a cloth so the players can’t see inside. The more similar the fruits, the harder the game – it’s a lot harder to tell the difference between a grapefruit and an orange than between a pineapple and a grape! Put a blindfold on one of your friends. Take a piece of fruit from the basket, hand it to them and see if they can guess the fruit. If they guess correctly, they get to keep going. Guess wrong and it’s someone else’s turn. This is a neat way to introduce new fruits into your diet!
