Use after the day's core activity. For checks I/J, use these only After Check first responses are saved. The arrow gives a concrete changed dramatic feature while keeping the day's target; it is not a claim about actual viewer emotion. All people, props and places are invented. A paper score remains devising evidence unless enactment is observed.

Day Worked swap 1 Worked swap 2
11 Fictional library desk with no parcel → same desk/figure with closed broad parcel added; viewer might ask its destination. Paper garden shed with box present → remove only box; viewer may wonder what figure seeks.
12 Imaginary repair shelf: tool box covered → slide broad screen aside, same box revealed. Pretend ticket kiosk: paper token visible → cover only token with opaque card, same figure/place.
13 Fictional parcel room shows one dot clue → replace clue with full square box, same figure/place. Paper workbench full box shown → show only dot on screen first; child poses a new question.
14 Imaginary refill station: silent crescent cue then reveal → reverse so reveal precedes cue. Pretend bus shelter: reveal then cue → move cue before reveal, keeping box and figure fixed.
15 After Check I: fictional book cart: leaf-shaped silent card after reveal → place it before reveal, same book. After Check I: paper workbench: cue before a new round prop reveal → reverse the two events and discuss difference.
16 Paper parcel depot: figure near fixed box → move figure farther away, same stage border/box. Fictional recycling point: figure far from fixed broad card → move only figure nearer.
17 Paper library trolley figure outside border → after slow cue, put figure inside; no real line crossing required. Imagined repair bay figure inside → plan a new entrance from outside after a visual cue, keeping prop fixed.

19 With authorised real work, one observed detail → a question for named maker's source; do not invent an answer. Original child scene puppet rehearsal → if child chooses and a real person is willing, show it and record actual mode/recipient.
20 After Check J: fictional parcel tent figure outside/box covered → cue, figure inside/box visible. After Check J: paper garden stage figure outside/round prop hidden → cue, figure inside/prop visible, with a different entry side.
