Homemade game for children: surprise bags

Many times we ask What can I play with my son at home? There are days when your children don't feel like playing with their multiple toys or just days when you want to make a family game and have a fun time all together.

Today I bring you an idea to make a homemade toy very easy and that children will have a lot of fun: the surprise bag game. With a few paper bags and a little imagination, your children will develop their sense of touch while having fun.

To make the game we will need:

  • Paper bags (you can also use cardboard boxes and make holes in them)
  • Toys, fruit and various objects that we have at home to hide
  • Paper Clips

Preparation of the bags

  • We fold the bags so that the base is facing towards us, forming a triangle.
  • With the help of a clip or paper clip, we attach the bag so that it is tightly closed. We make an opening to the base of the bag where we will introduce the objects and the child will reach in to take them out.

How the game works

  • The child must put his hand inside the bag (if left we can blindfold him).
  • Without removing the object from inside the bag, the child must guess what is hidden inside by touching with the hands.
