Twenty Questions
One of you thinks of something. The other has twenty yes-or-no questions.
Needs absolutely nothing, works in a car, a queue or a waiting room, and is genuinely good thinking practice.

طريقة التنفيذ
- One person thinks of an object and says whether it is an animal, a thing, or a place.
- The others ask questions that can only be answered yes or no.
- Count the questions out loud so the limit feels real.
- If they guess within twenty, they win and take a turn thinking.
- Afterwards, talk about which question narrowed it down most.
لماذا هذا مفيد لهم
A good question eliminates half the possibilities. Children start by guessing specific objects and gradually learn to ask categorising questions instead, which is a real and transferable shift in how they think.
