About Odd One Out

Big picture tiles show things from one group, like fruit or animals, plus one that does not fit. Your child spots the odd one, like a car among fruit or a bee among birds, and taps it. Five rounds make a game, and older kids get trickier groups such as fruit and vegetables.

How to play

  1. Look at all the pictures and name each one out loud.
  2. Tap the picture that belongs to a different group.
  3. On a computer, press 1 for the first picture, 2 for the second and so on.
