One child thinks of an animal and the other children try to figure out what it is. The children take turns asking yes/no questions like, Do you have four legs? or Are you bigger than a dog? . If the answer is yes, the child can guess the name of the animal by asking, Are you a ? But, if the answer is no, the next child asks a yes/no question. The child who guesses correctly then thinks of a different animal and the other children try to guess what it is. It is possible to give points for each correct guess, but the game can also be played without competition.
