An acoustic Kim's game in film canisters is a variant of a Kim's game. The participants should identify and distinguish several different sounds.

Equipment

  • film canisters (or other small canister, can, etc.), must be opaque
  • small things, that fit into the canister and make a distinguished sound when the canister is shaken, like:
    • solid: rice, sand, flour, marbles, ...
    • liquid: water, oil, honey, liquid soap, ...

Procedure

The players may shake the canisters and guess, what is inside. You can either do that with each player separately, or let them collaborate as a group.

When you have enough canisters, you can also fill two canisters with the same content. Then, the pairs have to be identified and the content.
