What's on the sheet

5 close-ups and 6 whole Oopsies
Close-ups of the eyes, the mouth, the top of the head or the side
All the Oopsies share one color, so color is no clue

Printed instructions: “Each circle shows a small part of an Oopsie: eyes, a mouth, a hairdo. Draw a line to the Oopsie who is peeking. One Oopsie isn't peeking!”

About this who's peeking? sheet

The close-ups are tighter and show different parts: the eyes, the mouth, the top of the head or one side. And every Oopsie on the sheet is the same color. To find who is peeking, a child has to picture the whole Oopsie from a small piece, the core of visual closure.

Tips for parents and teachers

Ask your child which part of the face each window shows before looking for the Oopsie.
Glasses, teeth and hairdos are the best clues. Point one out if your child is stuck.
Cut the windows out and use them as cards for a memory game afterwards.

The skill it trains: visual closure

Visual closure is the ability to recognize something when you only see part of it. The brain fills in what is missing: you know the cat is under the sofa when only its tail sticks out, and you can read a word even when a coffee stain hides half a letter.

Visual closure: what it is, signs a child finds it hard, and more activities

Play it in Oopsies: Peekaboo

🔍 Peekaboo

You only see a close-up of the Oopsie to find (its face, its eyes, its mouth or the top of its head) and have to recognize it in the crowd. After a wrong tap, or 30 seconds without finding it, the close-up zooms out a little.
