It's a clock! This one is from the mantle in the parlour at Roedde House. Were you able to figure out what it was?

Clock from the parlour in Roedde House Twenty questions is a great game to play with a friend. One of you can think of a familiar object, something you might find at home or in the classroom, and the other can ask twenty questions.

congratulatory bearHere's a tip: the best questions are broad questions. "Is it a basketball?" is a pretty specific question. If the object isn't a basketball, then you haven't learned much about it.

"Is it bigger than a basketball?" is a broader question. If the answer is yes, then you've eliminated everything that's smaller than a basketball from the list of potential objects. If the answer is no, then you've eliminated everything that's larger than a basketball from the list. Give it a try!
