The tin itself is very close to the Monkey Bites we did as a copycat tin a few weeks ago, because those went down so well. I just added a couple of things with strong smells or specific feels. And this time I blindfolded Froglet and made him guess using the other four senses. At the end I took the blindfold off and let him tell me what he could see too.
The one you can't see is instant coffee powder. We also had banana pieces.I did all four senses for each tin before passing on to the next one, which worked ok but I think next time I would have him smell all the tins in turn, then listen to them all in turn etc, because once he'd got in his mind that a tin sounded like x, he would keep guessing x if unsure, rather than reverting to I don't know or thinking of something else.
As you can see, there was nothing there that he guessed first by touch, although if we had done them in a different order I think he would have got raisins and water. Next time I would do touch before smell - I intended to this time but accidentally started writing smell first!
Froglet hadn't the faintest idea what the coffee was - when looking at it, he actually guessed brown sugar after I'd written down "don't know" - and that's because we don't drink coffee. We only have it in for guests. So no, I didn't make him drink it.
