Hello SteemKids and Parents!

It’s Wednesday, and I have my family visiting. One of the things that’s been keeping my grandchildren busy is… “I spy with my little eye.”

Now it is my turn to put you to the test!

Before we start our game, let’s take a last look at last week’s clues.

1. It is a 15-letter word starting with “I”
2. It's the fundamentals for many things
3. It is interconnected
4. isPrivate ≡ !isPublic

The correct word is INFRASTRUCTURES!

I must admit, I thought the clue “isPrivate ≡ !isPublic” would throw you off track, but that was not the case, as we have a winner!

Wikipedia.org explains the word infrastructure so nicely;

Infrastructure is the set of facilities and systems that serve a country, city, or other area, and encompasses the services and facilities necessary for its economy, households and firms to functions. Infrastructure is composed of public and private physical structures such as roads, railways, bridges, tunnels, water supply, sewers, electrical grids, and telecommunications (including Internet connectivity and broadband access). In general, infrastructure has been defined as "the physical components of interrelated systems providing commodities and services essential to enable, sustain, or enhance societal living conditions" and maintain the surrounding environment.

As for "isPrivate ≡!is public," yes, there are also infrastructures in technology.

Congratulations to the winner, @imohmitch!

With that, the prize for next week will stay at 2 STEEM.

Time for your next game!

The game is exactly like last week;

The game “I spy with my little eye” is sort of a detective game. The “spy” is the person who sees something, and the rest of the players must then guess what the spy is seeing.

Of importance, it must be something that you can see and not something you can feel, like an emotion.

BUT, “I spy with my little eye” is so much more than just a spy game;

  • It is a thinking game
  • It teaches you how to use your logic and reasoning and
  • It grows your vocabulary

The contest

For today, I am going to give you the letter with which the word starts plus 4 points, or “clues,” that you can take into consideration to figure out what the word can be.

Ready or not… let’s learn, play, and win!

I spy with my little eye something that begins with the letter “S"

1. It is an 11-letter word
2. Legendary
3. Beyond ordinary
4. Selfless

How to participate?

  • You can reply to this post by posting your word, or you can write an article about your word

What is up for grabs?

The first correct answer will take home 2 STEEM this week.

The word and the winner will be announced next week on Wednesday; therefore, make sure you don't send in your answer later than Tuesday 23:59 UTC.

If there is no winner, the prize will carry over until there is one.

Until next week, keep guessing!
