HOW TO PLAY
1

The storyteller calls out "Tim tim!" to signal a riddle or tale is about to begin.

2

The group responds together with "Bwa chèch!" to show they're ready and listening.

3

The storyteller poses a riddle or begins a short folktale, pausing at key moments for the group to guess an answer or call out a response.

4

Players shout out guesses; the storyteller confirms a correct guess or gives a clue if everyone is stuck.

5

Once the riddle is solved or the tale finishes, the correct guesser or a volunteer becomes the next storyteller.

6

Continue passing the storyteller role around the group for several rounds of riddles and tales.
