- A clipboard or sturdy book
- Four simple picture clues

How to Do the Quest
- 1
Draw four clues such as something moving, a puddle shape, a bright color, and a weather sound.
- 2
Choose safe ground-level windows and remind everyone to stay off furniture and away from cords or heaters.
- 3
Visit one window at a time, looking quietly for a single clue before marking it with a drawing or sticker.
- 4
Return to a table after each observation so no one needs to rush or crowd a window.
- 5
Compare the clues and choose one that looked different from another room.
- 6
Make up a one-sentence weather report using at least two discoveries.
Quest Challenge
Can you find four different kinds of movement without going outside?
Pro Tip
Keep the clues broad; noticing a swaying branch or passing umbrella is more fun than waiting for an exact answer.
