A Game for listening and following directions.
Face your Preschooler(s). The idea is for them to follow your lead and copy your actions...ie. touch your elbows, shoulders, hands in the air etc and as you are doing these actions, say "Do this".
But they are not to do the actions that accompany the words "Do That". So it would go like this: "Do This" (touch your nose), "Do This" (touch your shoulders), "Do This" (touch your elbows), "Do This" (touch your hips), "Do This"(touch your ears), "Do That - (touch your head)..at which point the Preschooler should not move and have their hands still on their ears.
Initially, use a comfortable pace and increase it accordingly. Good for groups of children of various ages.
As for all games, quit - preferably - before any signs of the little-ones being 'over' the game...keep it fun to return to play another day.
