CLOUD games are fun to play not only because it’s free, not only because it’s childlike, but because there are no winners or losers! Come on, try it for yourself. Look up! What do you see?
Step outside first of course. There’s nothing up there but a fluorescent light in that room you’re in. Let’s exercise our creativity a bit more and get some sun while we’re at it. Come on, let’s step outside.
Ideally, we lie on our backs on the grass. If you can’t get out of work though, you can stare out your window or walk onto your balcony. Now look up!
This is a great game to play with children. It’s a creative way to exercise their imagination even more. Now what if they see a dragon and you don’t? Play along! Perhaps if you look harder, you’ll see the majestic beings the kids are pointing at.
What if you went on a Cloud Game date? Take your partner or a potential one. While you can gauge how your companion appreciates this simple joy, you might also learn new things about each other. A Cloud Rorschach test perhaps? Ah, the discoveries you will have. If you start seeing the same figures in the sky, maybe you’re more compatible than you think.
There are two rules in this game and it’s best that you remember them:
- No shooting down of cloud sightings. What looks like a bear to you may be a lion to another. What looks like a sheep to you maybe a goose to one. There are no wrong answers, except for unimaginative ones like those in Rule #2.
- The following sightings are not allowed: pillows, cotton or cotton candy, marshmallows, sheep and well, clouds. Challenge yourself! Challenge each other! The more unique the sighting, the more fun you will have.
Other than those rules, the sky’s the limit.
So look up! What do you see?

I see a thick cloud. I do not know if it will fall as a gentle rain to nourish the fruit trees and the crops to feed humanity or if it will cause floods and calamities that will cause trouble for people who have abused the environment.
