Hide and Seek

My little friends love this game!  Today the children took turns being the teacher.  It was lots of fun to see how they talked and took turns playing the game. 

Here is what we do... 

I have some pieces that we put on a table or in a pocket chart (as shown).  I have colors, shapes, numbers, letters, and sight word pieces to use depending on the level of the children that I have at the time.  I will hide a seasonal picture behind one of the pieces.  The children need to take turns trying to find it. 

Today, I have colored paint cans in the chart.  The children hide a tulip behind one of the paint cans.  The other children take turns guessing where the tulip is at and use the word "behind".  When the tulip is found, they all cheer and the child that finds the tulip was the next teacher.

Try this at home for a cheap game that will keep your child interested for a really long time.  :}
