How to play
A grownup secretly sets up a tray with different items of food (with one of each item for each of the players).
One or more players are blindfolded and sit on the floor or at a table.
The players try each food and say everything they can to describe the taste, feel or smell of the food. Words we have heard are salty, squidgy, crunchy and sweet. They will also instinctively guess what they have tried.
When everything has been eaten reflect on what they said about each food and whether they liked them or not.
There are no winners in this one, but it is a lot of fun.
