The Odd One Out

One Word Got Lost

A video by Sesame Street

The game's question

Go through one list at a time and look together, with no hurry at all.

In each list, everything belongs together—except one word. Find it and cross it out. 1. Fruits: apple, pear, carrot, cherry. 2. Flowers: rose, tulip, oak, daisy. 3. Months: January, March, Tuesday, July. 4. Farm animals: cow, pig, lion, hen. 5. Furniture: chair, table, sofa, banana.

One word per list does not belong—five lists to go through together

Need a hint?

Ask each other: “What family do the other words belong to?” Then the odd one stands out. The fun is in the looking, not in finding it the first time.

See the answer

Answer: Carrot · oak · Tuesday · lion · banana—a vegetable, a tree, a day, a wild animal, a fruit.

Why this game : Sorting things into place is a quiet pleasure. What does not belong stands out, and the game stays light the whole way.
