(Just something fun we do at our house.)
Let’s say I bought a new sweater as a Christmas present for my daughter.
My daughter, who really wants to know what the present is – and a little bit kinda enjoys NOT knowing what it is – asks for hints as the days go by, trying to guess what is in the box.
Our hints go like this:
You could use it as an umbrella, but I wouldn’t.
You may like to take it for a walk on a leash, but I wouldn’t.
You can paint with it, but I wouldn’t.
You could wear it on your head, but I wouldn’t.
You could eat it, but I wouldn’t.
You can tell time with it, but I wouldn’t.
You could try to read it, but I wouldn’t.
You could heat it in the microwave, but I wouldn’t.
You can wear it on your feet, but I wouldn’t.
You may put icing on it, but I wouldn’t.
Maybe you could use it to start a fire… but I wouldn’t.
(Eventually the questions stop.)
It’s a fun way to give hints without telling someone what the present actually is.
