Excerpt from Where's Wally?

The crowd stirred, crowding, and the hats were quickly removed. Princess Marya, lowering her eyes and tangling her legs in her dress, came close to them. So many different old and young eyes were fixed on her and there were so many different faces that Princess Marya did not see a single face and, feeling the need to speak suddenly with everyone, did not know what to do. But again the knowledge that she was the representative of her father and brother gave her strength, and she boldly began her speech.
“I’m very glad that you came,” Princess Marya began, without looking up and feeling how quickly and strongly her heart was beating. - Dronushka told me that the war ruined you. This is our common grief, and I will spare nothing to help you. I myself am going, because it is already dangerous here and the enemy is close ... because ... I give you everything, my friends, and I ask you to take everything, all our bread, so that you have no need. And if you were told that I am giving you bread so that you stay here, then this is not true. On the contrary, I ask you to leave with all your property to our Moscow region, and there I take it upon myself and promise you that you will not need it. You will be given both houses and bread. The princess stopped. There were only sighs in the crowd.
“I’m not doing this on my own,” the princess continued, “I am doing this in the name of my late father, who was a good master for you, and for my brother and his son.
She stopped again. No one broke her silence.
- Our common grief, and we will divide everything in half. All that is mine is yours, ”she said, looking around the faces in front of her.

Long before finding pandas in snowmen and among other things there was a game of mindfulness called "Where is Waldo?" The meaning of the game was to find in the picture a funny guy with glasses, a striped hat and a sweater named Waldo. The whole difficulty lay in the enormous detail and the presence of a number of objects similar to him in the picture. Many then turned gray from stress and strained their eyes, trying to find the elusive Waldo. Today we want to present to your attention another series of puzzles with Waldo, only now in virtual reality.

The video titled "Where" s Waldo 360 was created by the guys at CorridorDigital YouTube. The main difference between this puzzle and the others is that you have to look for Waldo in virtual reality, watching a video shot in 360-degree format. You can search for Waldo both on a regular screen, rotating the video picture 360 ​​degrees, and using virtual reality glasses (Google Cardboard, Samsung GEAR VR, etc.).

Each video contains additional tasks, for which you just have to look down. So where is Waldo?

If this is your first time watching a 360-degree video, then you just need to move the mouse over the video window, hold down the left mouse button, and rotate the picture to any side

If you are reading this article from a mobile phone, then to get a 3D effect, you will need to click on the title of the video at the top of the video window and watch it on YouTube. In this mode, you do not need to rotate the picture with your hands, you just need to rotate the smartphone

"Where is Wally?" (alternative title "Where is Waldo?") is a series of children's books created by British artist Martin Hendford. In them you need to find a certain person - Wally - in the picture, which depicts a lot of people. Wally wears a striped red and white sweater, glasses, a tasselled hat, and leans on a wooden cane.

The search undoubtedly forces the child to concentrate as much as possible on finding Wally (and the artist deliberately complicates the task by adding distracting details). But also while searching for Wally (and sometimes also his friends, the dog and the things they lost), at the same time, you can have a conversation about what is happening in the picture, about who is doing what, why and why.

You can arrange a game among the children looking at the picture: one thinks of a character and describes him with suggestive clues (this character is walking down the street, he is wearing a yellow hat, he is sad, for example), while others are trying to find him.

As an option: the one who made the prediction does not say anything, but can answer the clarifying questions with “yes-no” answers (Is this a man / woman / cat? He walks / lies / sits? Etc.).

Of course, it is best to search directly in books, some of them can be found at Ozon.ru. For example, in the book "Where" s Waldo? The Fantastic Journey "
(http://www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/3895352/?partner ..) Wally finds himself in the fantasy world, in which he needs to find a large list of things, the list is given, in addition to the fact that he himself with friends need to be searched on every page. Designed for ages 5-9 years.

There are also editions translated into Russian: "Where is Wally now?" - the hero travels in time to different countries (http://www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/5563584/?partner ..) and “Where is Wally now? The Book of Miracles "- here is the city of clowns, and a confectionery factory, and a toy store (http://www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/5563563/?partner ..).

But if there are no books at hand yet, practice looking for Wally on scans from books (do not forget to download them in full).
