Heavier or lighter

A game for 1 or more players

You will need:

  • A selection of items (these can be chosen according to any particular interests)
  • Weighing scales
  • How to play

    Lay out the items in a line so that only 1 item is revealed. Everyone guesses whether the next item will be heavier or lighter than the one first one. The shape and size of the covered item may provide a clue.

    Reveal the next item and either stick to your guess or change it. Weigh both items to check.

    Score:
    2 points for a correct initial guess
    1 point for a second guess that was correct

    Who can get the most points?
    Rearrange the items and play again or choose new items. Can you beat your previous score?
