Torch Hunt in the Dark

Indoor games
  • 5–10 years
  • 25 min
  • at home

Ten ordinary objects hide in a darkened room and a torch beam is the only way to find them. A familiar room looks completely different when you can only see a circle of it at a time.

What you need

  • 2 torches or phone flashlights
  • 10 everyday objects
  • Curtains that close

How to play

  1. Hide ten everyday objects around one room while your child waits outside the door.
  2. Close the curtains and switch off the lamps, leaving the hallway light on.
  3. Hand out a torch each and allow thirty seconds per object.
  4. Call out what to look for next — something round, something soft, something wooden.
  5. Count the finds together, then let your child hide the next set.
