A surprise a day until Christmas from the mistress of games and me!! Hurrah!

Christmas Tree
Four angels sat on the Christmas tree amidst other ornaments. Two had blue halos and two – yellow. However, none of them could see above his head. Angel A sat on the top branch and could see the angels B and C, who sat below him. Angel B, could see angel C who sat on the lower branch. And angel D stood at the base of the tree obscured from view by a thicket of branches, so no one could see him and he could not see anyone either.
Which one of them could be the first to guess the color of his halo and speak it out loud for all other angels to hear?

.

Good luck!

I wonder if it would be better in time out Beth thinking about it, more people go in there!

Had me stumped for a bit there, trying to find it again! However, I agree time out is the correct place.

I think that Angel A has the greatest chance of calling out the right colour halo first time. As she can see two angels below her and if they both have the same colour halo she should have the other colour halo, but if they both have differing colours she has a 50% chance of giving the right answer first time.

But I could be wrong, lol.
