Product Information

The ‘What’s in the bag?’ activity is fun, engaging, easy to implement and free! You can use toys and objects that you have readily available in the home, daycare, or clinic setting. It is an easy play-based activity to coach parents/caregivers to use as they can use things they have to hand at home. Now, get your child’s attention and ask them "what's in the bag?". You could shake the bag or sing a song too. Shuffle the cards, put them in the bag, and start drawing! How many cards can you get your team to guess in thirty seconds? When you pull an object/toy out of the bag, hold it up near your face, so that the child is looking at you and your mouth when you say the words.

The “What’s in the bag?” activity can also be used to target other skills, such as play skills and social skills (e.g., turn-taking, sharing, etc.). The game is simple, fast-paced and easy to play making it suitable for 2 or more players of ages 8 years and over. Playing Who’s in the Bag If your baby is not sure how to play with the toy, you can model how . If you're playing with a hairbrush, you can use the brush to brush your hair.You can choose to have some players be allowed this exception while others play with the traditional rules of the game. For younger children or those with mobility issues, you can play the game exactly the same way but allow both feet to be touching the ground. The objective of the game is simple and everyone can participate. Each team must identify as many famous characters indicated on the cards as possible within the given time. This is where the fun begins! Players can mime, describe, act, or sing to help others guess the character. With over 850 characters included, each round is fresh and exciting.

Our neighbour Christie introduced our family to the Bag Game years ago and it is always a hit on family game night. This easy game requires exactly one item and can be played anywhere. It can be played with large groups or small groups and with people of all ages. It seriously does not get simpler or better than The Bag Game! There are other games with a similar concept, going through the same cards multiple times, using different methods to get people to guess them — however if you haven’t played one yet or really enjoy the mechanic, It’s in the Bag presents this concept very well. The Bag Game is an easy activity for large groups with a variety of ages and abilities. It can be played at youth groups, camp, family reunions, Christmas parties, birthday parties, retirement celebrations, or in a classroom. You will want to play this in a fairly large area so that everyone has room to manoeuvre. We have found that everyone develops a bit of their own style in this game. Some put their other leg way up high and use it as a counterbalance. Some crouch low to the ground with their whole body while others bend their upper half down. One of our sons places one foot on top of the other before crouching down. This activity is great at eliciting language from young children, and I find it keeps them engaged throughout my full sessions!Put all of the toys in the bag, the adult holds onto the bag and gains the child’s attention. The adult then asks “What’s in the bag?” (I often shake the bag so the toys make a noise too as this really grabs their attention). It’s also possible to use ‘feely bags’/”what’s in the bag?” activities with other groups of children and not just young toddlers. The activity can be modified so that you have the objects in the bag and you take it in turns to choose an object but rather than pulling it out straight away, the person has to describe it (talk about its shape, size, how it feels, what you do with it, etc.) and the other person has to guess what it is. This is great for working on building vocabulary, expanding utterances, and word-finding skills with older children. If the child is not sure how to play with the toy, you can model how to play with it. For example, pretend to drink from a cup, use the brush to brush your hair or make animal noises when holding the cow/pig etc. The five different categories allow you to tailor the cards to the group you’re playing with, but within the categories there is a wide range. For instance, the people category includes both well-known figures as well as professions or items often associated with people (such as a wallet or driver’s license). The range within the categories ensures the game stays challenging. You can also customize the length of the game by adjusting the number of cards per player that you use. The bag itself is a little small, but the cards are a nice quality, with large print. Use simple language to comment on the toy and what the child is doing. For example, if they take a car out of the bag, you could say “car”, “blue car”, if they push it, you could say “pushing the car”, “fast car” etc. When you model the words, be sure to keep the language simple and emphasise the key words.
