Question Me game

I had received WhatsApp message of Wh questions.Thus I got this idea of creating Question Me game.I have attached the WhatsApp forward too as it may be useful to someone.

How we played this game

I have typed whatever questions came to my mind based on ‘Wh ‘ questions and self laminated it.I have numbered it in order of 1 to 45 as we used dice to play this game.It is numbered in such a way so that it is not in same order like usual board game and the child need to put concentration to find the sequence of number.

This game can be played with two or more players.

The first player will roll the dice.If he gets number 6,he will move with his pebble to number 6 ,whatever question is written in box 6 will be asked to second player.

The second player has to answer the question asked by first player.Then second player will get his turn and he will ask the question to first player.

The game continues till one of the player reaches the end point.

The player will miss the chance if he does not answer in full sentence.

I wanted to keep as simple as possible,you can modify the question according to your child.In this game,we had follow up questions apart from board questions.I extended the help of reading questions on behalf of my child wherever needed.

This game aids in development of language skills in the child,questioning skills,taking turns, counting,enhances concentration.

Here is the Free downloadof the “Question Me” game.

Our Human teeth model

This was in continuation to our Teeth game which we played yesterday.My son who is fond of pretend play,today wanted to human teeth.

I gave him idea of doing it using rice flour.He just took little help in kneading rice flour to get correct consistency.Rest everything was done by little hands on small plate.

The Rice flour dough mixed with water colour was made as mouth and plain rice flour dough was made as teeth.

He had good time in playing pretend play as dentist with lots of imagination.

Our Teeth game

This game was prepared in less than 5 minutes.I got this idea of playing this game when we were talking about human teeth.

I just draw teeth from 1 to 32 in sheet of paper with few simple rules.Chalk piece are used as teeth.This game was played in two methods.

How we played

First method.

We have used 32 pieces of chalk pieces as teeth and a dice for this game

0 is the start and end point of game

My child wanted to mention it as baby,little boy,highschool boy,college,office,daddy,grandpa as stages.

For certain teeth ,I have mentioned rules as move forward 2 teeth,backward 2 teeth,go to teeth number 17 and soon

The child had to roll the dice ,count it and keep the teeth according to numbers.

For example: If the dice stops at 5,the child had to keep 5 teeth and keep on adding according to the number.The game will end after reaching the finish point 0.

Second method.

In this method ,I asked the child to keep all 32 pieces of teeth in each place.

The child had to roll the dice.If he gets number 2,he need to remove 2 teeth and put it in cup.The game ends when all 32 teeth are removed.

This game is purely my imagination and but my child loved playing it.It was different experience.
