Answer Predictions
Materials:
- Writing supplies
How well do you know your children? How well do they know you? Here's a guessing game that will help you find out.
The essence of this game is the "Food Test," which your child creates with ten questions. (What's your favorite vegetable? Which fruit do you think has the most seeds? What breakfast food is Aunt Betsy's specialty? and so on.)
To play, your child writes down his or her predictions about how you'll answer the Food Test questions. Then your child quizzes you, so he or she can see how well the predictions panned out.
If your younger child needs help coming up with the questions for the "Food Test," give him or her a hand. But keep your answers to yourself until your child makes his or her best guesses.
Who knows? You might find out that your kids really do like broccoli and cauliflower. Those sounds they make whenever you serve them are just expressions of joy!
