Picture Detectives

So it's that time of the year again where you get to help me put together my ideas for Cub Scout Day Camp. The theme this year is CSI: Cub Scout Investigators and the boys will be doing lots of detective work. At one station the cubs will be doing picture puzzles. Take a guess at what the following close ups are actually pictures of. They are all items that you would find around your home. Please let me know if they are too easy, too hard, too obscure etc. Remember that this is geared for 8-10 year old boys. Thanks for your help! (After putting this post together I realize that I need more objects with color!)

  2. it was really hard to guess once i figured out that if you double clicked on the picture it would give you it's JPG name. :)
    but this is what i got without cheating except on the paper clip ( i can't believe the rimmasch family got that one it was tough)
    broom
    domino
    NO idea
    fork
    keyboard
    plug in the wall
    paperclip (cheat)
    hose end
    wrench
    tire

  3. I got the outlet and the fork. I just never have the paitence (or maybe the discipline)to stay with these kinds of things long enough to really figure them out. I think that says a lot more about a 51 year old woman though than it would an 8 to 10 year old boy.

  5. Those are tough, but I have a bad headache right now and everything looks a blur....so that could be a problem.

  6. I have always loved these games but I don't know why because I suck at guessing!!

    I did figure out the broom, keyboard, and the outlet.

    I was stumped on the others, so I called Mike over for his help. He studied the images carefully and then told me to click on each one. After they appeared enlarged he would name each one so confidently. I was seriously thinking my husband was pure genius!! But then I figured out that he was reading the JPG name that appears when the picture is enlarged. :-)

  8. I feel so not smart, since you had to tell me almost all of them. Now that I know what they are they seem so obvious.
