simon says

Monthly Goal:

Today I did today’s activity.  :)   Things have been crazy this week with me training for a new job but I made sure I fit in a little bit of Simon Says.

Don’t forget to leave a comment about what you did today.

Today’s Activity:

Play Simon Says.

Note:

This is a great activity if your children are having a hard time listening.  You could even rename it “Mommy Says.”

Evaluate:

This was a great game to play while I was making lunch!  Rather than having them running around under my feet while I tried to get lunch ready I could tell them to run into the front room or jump up and down.  I even had Simon tell them to clean up their toys and they did it!  While we were eating Max kept saying, “Simon Says eat your lunch” and then Elese said, “Simon Says eat a cookie.”  Then I jumped in and said, “Mommy says don’t eat a cookie.  What mommy says always beats what Simon says.”  It was a fun little game that we could fit in on a busy day.
