All Fun Stuff

Kids learn best through activities that engage their curiosity and creativity. When it comes to this, what kind of activities are better than games? Below is a list of just some of the many benefits of play. You can forge a deeper bond with your children as you play games with them. If they play with other children, they can learn to get along with others. Games often require or encourage communication, meaning your children will be able to practice their language skills. Your children will be able to develop motor skills. Children will almost always have fun when playing games. Fun helps your children boost their mood and their psychological well-being. Activities like these will help your child improve their self-esteem. Games will help your child become more independent and will teach them self-regulation. The younger kids learn to control their emotions and behaviour, the more successful they are in classroom learning, and in life. Don’t know where to start? We got you covered! Check out the list below for some game suggestions and ideas!   Balance beam This is both fun and challenging. It’ll be even more interesting if you offer a simple reward to the winner. Also, this game is easier to set up than you think! All you need to do is create straight or curved lines with sticky tape. The child, or child at heart, that can walk the length of the tape without stepping on the bare floor wins. You can use multiple colours and have unique rules for them. For example, if the tape is blue, participants must walk with one hand on his head. 2. Freeze dance   When it comes to fun, nothing beats a dance party! This game is one of the best games for your child to learn self-regulation. Tell everyone that they must hold still once the music stops. The first person to move is eliminated for the next round. The game ends when only one person is left. Don’t forget to encourage your children and help them improve their self-esteem by giving them a simple reward. 3.  Touch and feel   This game is a great way to train your little ones’ minds to identify objects without their sense of sight. This will also help improve their memory. To play, all you need to do is place several interesting objects into containers, and have your child identify them by touch. Another way to play is by blindfolding them and having them identify items that are placed on a table.  Traffic lights This game will not only teach your children to obey the rules, it might also save their life when they become old enough to drive! One person will play the traffic cop and turns to face a wall. The first person to tag the traffic cop wins. However, they can only move once the cop shouts “Green!” If the cop shouts “Red!” The other participants must stop, and the cop gets to check if everyone obeys. Read more [...]
