What’s Missing?
Look at Labugen’s tray, remember the objects, and work out which one has disappeared.
Look at the tray for as long as you like. When you click “I’m ready,” Labugen will cover it with a blanket and hide one object. Choose the object that is missing.

What’s Missing? is a visual memory activity also known as Kim’s game. Your child looks at a tray holding several objects. The tray is then covered with a blanket, and when it reappears, one object is gone. The task is simple: choose the missing object.
There is no timer and no pressure. Children decide when they have finished looking, so they practice remembering rather than racing against the clock. The tray grows with every round, starting with three objects and continuing until the challenge becomes too difficult.
There are no words at all during play. Every object is a simple shape, so the game works equally well in any language, and children who cannot read yet can play without an adult’s help.
The score is not a number of points. It shows how many objects were on the largest tray completed without a mistake. Parents can understand this measure at a glance, and it cannot be inflated simply by playing for longer.
