The mysterious case of the stolen cake
Detective 8-10 years old – Detective 8-10 years old – Detective 8-10 years old – Detective 8-10 years old
My name’s J.L. Colombo. I’m the director of the famous detective agency FINDITALL.
We’re looking for the most talented investigators in the world and it would appear that this is what you want to become… this investigation will allow us to evaluate whether you have all necessary skills and knowledges which make a good professional private detective: patience, action, attention, logic, hearing acuity, observation, discretion and deduction!
A certain number of challenges are waiting for you. My deputy will observe you and will decide whether you deserve to get the so sought-after detective badge. Open your folders now and follow the instructions.
Are you ready to investigate on “The mysterious case of the stolen cake”? We’re off then!
To get the stolen cake back, the children will have to look for the witnesses and question them. Each of them will reveal a distinguishing feature of the thief. But this will not be an easy task as all witnesses expect something in exchange of the information they will divulge! The children will have to prove that they possess all the qualities of a professional detective.
