Game: What’s in the Cup?

This game is all about exploring ones sense of smell. It’s truly amazing how when you loose one sense (your sight) another one (your smell) is heightened.

Materials:

• A blindfold
• 6 cups
• A slice of lemon or lime
• Coffee grounds
• Black pepper
• Chopped onion or garlic
• Cilantro
• Ground cinnamon

Wow-To:

Step 1: Prep your materials and put the 6 smelly elements into the cups (if you don’t have the exact items suggested, you can easily swap them for any other items that have a strong smell).

Step 2: Blindfold your participant.

Step 3: Have the participant smell each cup one at a time and try to guess what is in the cup.
