Bornelund Rolf (ROLF) Fun Learning Guess the Shape! Sketch on Back, Ages 4+, RL2996002

Product Introduction

A communication game born from your fingertips, not words This is a communication game where you draw a picture on a card with your finger on someone's back and guess the picture. How to Play 1. Decide which card to use. Once two people have paired up, they split into "question-asker" and "person to have drawn on their back." They decide which of four large cards with seven different designs will be used. The designs are divided into four groups, each with a different theme based on color. ・Purple cards: Designs that indicate directions ・Green cards: Shapes that allow you to say your name together ・Blue cards: Shapes with other shapes inside ・Red cards: Shape combinations 2. Draw on the other person's back with your finger. The person asking the question chooses a design from a small card of the same color as the one chosen in Step 1 and draws it on the other person's back with their finger. Consider the size, speed, and order of the drawing to best communicate the message to the other person. 3. Guess the design on the back. The person being drawn must guess the picture drawn on a large card. Focus on your back and try to connect what you feel in your body with the image that comes to mind. Key Points The size, speed, and starting point of your finger stroke will affect how it is conveyed to the other person. Some of the shapes are somewhat similar, so try experimenting. There are 28 different designs in total, with varying levels of difficulty. When you actually try drawing a design on your back, you'll probably find it harder to guess than you thought. In fact, the back is much less sensitive to stimuli than the face or palm of your hand. For example, even if you place two chopsticks a few centimeters apart and touch them to your back, they will feel as if they are one chopstick. The ability to perceive this is called the "discrimination threshold." However, there are sports that use the "back" as a means of communication. One such sport is blind soccer, where coaches apparently send signs and instructions to the players' backs. In other words, even if the back has a low discrimination threshold, concentration and training can make it more sensitive.
