The Manhattanville College Memory Development Lab

We play games to see what children know about the world and how they think about searching for things

We play the search for Smiley game.

When we search for Smiley, Smiley hides from us in one of the corners of the room so

we can only find him by turning over his special card that looks like all the others on the back.

We watch Smiley hide.

Then we close our eyes and spin around.

Then we look carefully around and choose which corner has Smiley.

When we find him we feel so good!
