A good
game to
play with
children to pass the
time. Doesn't have to be children though. It goes
like this:
I spy... with my little eye... something that is <insert colour here>.The
child then has to
try to
guess what you
see. If there's more than one kid, the kids take
turns answering, and the first one to guess
correctly
wins. This game helps
kids
sort stuff by colour and become more
observant of their
environment. Then they get to
ask you.
Some children aren't that
good at picking
objects for this game. Some will
pick things that are way too
obvious, or that have already been picked. And sometimes kids pick objects that are way too
obscure or aren't the right colour. Some kids
forget what they picked or answer yes to whatever
answer you give.
You can play
variations of
I Spy with your peers. For example:
I spy... with my little eye... someone in
CS.
I hear... with my
little ear... a song that sucks.
