- Level 1 · The Village
- Difficulty Beginner
- Mode Creative
- Time 30–40 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Swap places and become the teacher. You'll pick a skill you know well, write clear steps, and talk a family member through it using words only. Watch them try, give hints when they're stuck, fix your steps, then hand out a score and a helpful tip.
Finish line: Your student completes the skill using only your instructions, and you can say what made your teaching work.
Bonus challenge: Turn your steps into a neat 5-step guide a friend could follow without you there.
You’ll need
- A family member as your student
- A skill to teach
You choose
- The skill I'll teach (taming, stair roof…)
- My student
- How I'll score them: stars, points or out of 10
Stuck?
- Student confused? Break the step into two smaller ones and try again.
- Hands off the controls! If they get stuck, give a hint with words instead of taking over.
- Say exactly what to tap and where. Words like 'that thing' are hard to follow.
