You’ll need
Nothing at all. Just you.
How to play
Clap twice and wait for them to copy.
Move on: stamp your feet, pat your head, touch your nose, stick out your tongue.
Go slowly. The gap where they work it out is the whole activity.
Do two things in a row and see whether they can remember both.
Let them lead and copy them exactly, including the silly ones.
What it helps with
Make it different next time
- Add sounds as well as movements.
- Do it in front of a mirror so they can see both of you.
Cleanup: None.
