SETUP:

Place the cards face down in the centre of the playing area. All the players take a headband and adjust it around their head. The teacher deals the cards and insert one into the clip of their headband so that the other players can see it, but he/she cannot. Another option is to stick the card to the forehead of each player.

A timer is needed to make the game more challenging. In turns, each student will ask questions in order to guess his/her costume.
