I’m seeing signs of fall! Are you? Cooler nights and warm days make the leaves change color. We’ve got a nice little drizzle going this morning. LOVE fall! My friend over at TravelingMel.com is getting ready for winter in Montana and embarked on canning projects – looks DELICIOUS. I bought a whole flat of peaches this week just because of her photos!
Guess the Game: Odds and Ends
What would your child do with this pile of odds & ends (considering they are old enough to even have these in their possession)?
My 6 year old daughter kept herself occupied for an hour with this strange assortment.
Can you guess what she played? Hint: Ask your kids what they would play with these items.
Leave your guess in the comments and I’ll respond with the real game after I get some guesses. (I might even randomly pick one of you for a giveaway or reward!)

I think my boys would have played a "storefront" game, where they would have charged me money to purchase said items for a nominal fee. Sometimes I'm lucky enough to get one of them for free as the "family discount"!.....Or, they would have used the hanky to play a game of guess what's missing or some version of the "shell" game......Can't wait to hear what your 6 year old thought up!

Okay, time to reveal. My daughter played "medic" with all that stuff. I was the patient. The handkerchief was a bandage. The rubber band with charms was a blood pressure cuff. The hair clip was a shot - and she was clipping it to my elbow! Ouch. The little doll blanket was an alcohol wipe before the shot. I had no idea what she was going to do with all that stuff when she packed it up. She had a plan, though.

That looks like pirate gear to me. The hankie is the pirate bandana. The tic tac case is to look through as a monocle or a telescope or even a magnifying glass. The patch is a treasure map. The keyring is the treasure, placed in the box/treasure chest. The clip can be a pirate hook.

What a great guess! I love your imagination. Any more guesses, anyone?
