Before Starting to Play
Place the bathtub in front of the children and insert Bubble Bath Bunny and both ducks into the
slots. Shuffle the tiles and lay them face down on the water surface. Have the die ready.
Play
The children play one by one in a clockwise direction. The last child to take a very bubbly bubble
bath gets to go first and rolls the die.
Ask the child:
What does the die show?
• A Color?
The child tries to find a tile with the same color, choosing one from the bathtub and turning it
over.
• The Bucket, the Whale or the Boat?
The child tries to find a tile with the same symbol, choosing one from the bathtub and
turning it over.
Does it match?
• Yes!
Great!
The child gets to keep the tile and places it in front of him.
• No!
Never mind!
Look at the tile and try to remember what's on it.
Then, turn it over again so that it's facing down.
Then it's the turn of the next child to roll the die.
End of the Game
The game is over as soon as all the toys have been found. The children then stack up their tiles.
The child with the highest stack wins. The game can have more than one winner.
Winning and losing ... are both part of playing! Whoever wins is as
happy as a lark. Whoever loses is sad, disappointed, and sometimes
even angry. Show interest in your child's emotions, be happy for him
or comfort him. Children who just lost need to be reassured; let them
know that they'll have another chance in the next game. They will
become emotionally stronger and better prepared for the highs and
lows of life.

My Very First Games
Game#2:
What's Floating on the Water?
A guessing game for 2 – 4 children age 2+.
And presto! Who will pull which toy out of the bath water?
Before Starting to Play
Place the bathtub in front of the children and insert Bubble Bath Bunny and both ducks into
the slots. Shuffle the tiles and lay them face down on the water surface. Have the die ready.
Play
The children play one by one in a clockwise direction. The last one to have shriveled fingers
from a bath gets to go first. He picks up a face-down tile and looks at it without letting
anyone else see it.
Then he asks his neighbor to his left:
What's on my tile? Bucket, whale or boat?
The other child takes a guess and turns the die to show the symbol he thinks is on the tile. The
child who asked now lays his tile next to the die and everyone compares them together.
Ask the children:
Does the picture on the tile match the die?
• Yes!
Well done!
The child who guessed right gets the tile then places it down in front of him.
• No!
Oops!
The tile disappears in the suds: The child who asked slides the tile into the slot
next to Bubble Bath Bunny.
Now it's the next child's turn. He turns over a tile and looks at it without letting anyone else see it.
End of the Game
The game is over once there are no more tiles on the water surface. The children then stack up
their tiles. The child with the highest stack wins. The game can have more than one winner.
