An Action Game for Summer

11:12 pm Games and Activities

Kids love to manipulate their bodies into exaggerated positions and shapes.  Silly gestures, making faces, and body movements – all these can be fun. To organize this tendency better, make a list of actions.  Your child has to perform these as you read them out. Here are some ideas, but there are no limits, really :

  • Hop like a frog
  • Jump like a kangaroo
  • Fly like a bird
  • Slither like a snake
  • Pant like a dog
  • Walk like  a cat
  • Walk like an Egyptian
  • Dance like a Japanese girl
  • Crawl like a  baby

Do this outside, and include music in this activity.  Lots of fun for the kiddies with no extra effort to you.  Keep the camera handy!

    we have the best video of our girls playing this game. We say “go away like a …” and they run across the room imitating what ever animal, and “come back like a…” It will last for as long as we can think of ideas!

    My girls LOVE this game … I think I will write up some for our major road trip. Things they can easily do in their car seats. Thanks for the idea!!
