HOW TO PLAY
1

Set out a row of small bowls, each holding a different common spice, and let one player study them briefly.

2

Blindfold that player, then mix up the order of the bowls without telling them.

3

One at a time, hold a bowl close enough for the blindfolded player to smell without touching it.

4

The player names which spice they believe is in each bowl as it is presented.

5

Reveal the correct answers at the end and count how many the player identified correctly.

6

Take turns being the blindfolded guesser; whoever identifies the most spices correctly wins.
