I Spy - To play this game simply choose an object
within eyeshot and state the letter that it begins
with. For example, if your object is a candle you
say "I spy with my little eye, something beginning
with 'C' " Each family member takes turns guessing
what object you spied. Whoever guesses the object
gets to go next.
Coloring - It is quite possible
that there is not a child on this planet that does
not enjoy coloring with crayons and markers. Pick up
coloring books at the dollar store and keep them up
high for special "boredom days".
Hide It - Hide an object in an
obvious place. For example, place your portable
telephone on top of the television. The first person
to find the telephone gets to pick the next object
and hide it. The only rule is that the object cannot
actually be "hidden", it must be in a visible place
and not hidden from view.
Puzzles - What a great way for the
family to spend some relaxing time together. Puzzles
come in all shapes and sizes, different age ranges
and difficulty levels.
