Optional own project ·Teach someone the game you chose

Make a start guide for a person who prefers a different usual response mode. Ask them only if they are willing; otherwise label the guide a plan and keep their preferences unknown.

Start with one familiar purpose and one small decision. Use usual communication, broad drawing, an organiser role, directing an agreeing adult or a suitable locally reviewed practical opportunity. An adult prepares and teaches actual technique/space/kit/cues; no harder action, longer route, stronger send, more turns or public performance is expected.

Make the idea yours: choose the purpose, one part and an ending. An agreeing listener may offer one real question; there need be no audience or second trial. Decide keep/change/private/finish. Keep only any genuinely available relevant child-owned work with permission; a complete portfolio is not the project goal.

Notice an actual own decision and what happened only where observed, with child/helper/support distinct. A plan or fictional explanation remains useful without being filled as practical competence. Choose a next appropriate opportunity from actual need rather than a generic demand to practise more.
