Each card has two equally important sides. The abstract images are for imagination and association games. The questions on the other side inspire easy, funny and deep, even philosophical conversations with your family or friends. Stimulate your imagination and growth mindset!

You are free to make up the game rules yourself. Take your time and do not rush to answer. Imagination takes time to "kick in". It will be interesting to see how you overcome the challenge of not seeing the first association! Will you be able to see a flower bud when you first see a dolphin breaking the waves?

Fun and in-depth conversations

Choose a card, read the question aloud, dream for a few seconds and answer. Let the others answer too. The more versions of the answer, the more interesting! Once everyone has spoken, draw another card.

The questions are designed to be suitable for both children and adults. There is no single right answer. Some answers will make you laugh until you cry; others will make you think and inspire you to chase your dreams. And don't be surprised if the little players outshine the adults with their imagination!

Imagination and associations

Spread the cards out face up. One player chooses a card and says the association of the image on the card, and the others try to see new associations. When no one can come up with anything else, draw a new card.

In the same way, you can play a game where one player chooses a theme and the others have to identify the cards that belong to that theme. For example, one says "the sea" and the players must pick out cards that remind them of the sea or are associated with it. The winner is the one who collects and explains the most cards with sea associations. Other themes can include: animals, forest, sky, holiday, travel, the best mood in the world, sadness, sport, friends, spring, birds flying south and much more.

Educational imagination game "4C

This game scenario is designed for those who want to stretch their imagination even further.

Each participant takes a card. You can draw from the pile or choose the card that catches your eye the most. Then take turns answering the questions:

Combine: What would you like to add to the shapes on your card? What would you get if you combined it with the card image of another participant? What would you get if you added words, signs, symbols and decorations to the image?

Change: Can parts be moved to another place on the card or changed? What would you get then?

Remove: What could you remove, change or simplify? What would it be like if you removed a part?

Compare: How does it look different? How could it be adapted?
