Days out

Balloon festival

Gentle Hot-air balloons rising over patchwork fields while another is laid out ready to fill.

A hot-air balloon festival on an early summer morning: striped and patterned balloons rising over patchwork fields and hills, one balloon lying on the grass ready to be filled, a food tent with bunting, a picnic rug, a dog, a bicycle and a flock of birds.

Find the five differences

This pair has a different number of things, a changed shape, something added or taken away, something moved and a new pattern. Compare the two pictures and tap each change in either one.

  • No timer to beat, no penalty for wrong taps.
  • Zoom in for small details; pinch works on touch screens.
  • Hints and text clues are there if you want them.

Opens on Monday 30 November, when it’s the daily pair. Every daily opens on its day, the same for everyone. Until then, try a practice pair or a past daily.
