I Spy

One of my favorite games to play with the kids is I Spy. It's perfect to distract them -- changing the subject, stopping whining, etc., as well as occupying their little minds while we're waiting for something. It's also a great way to teach numbers, colors, shapes, new objects, etc. Last month Terron ran inside a store while the rest of us waited in the van. The kids started to complain so I headed up an awesome game of I Spy. We were parked right by a handicapped sign. I wanted to use that for my turn, but knew my kids didn't know what it meant. After playing for awhile Dallen said, "I Spy a sign that is a blue rectangle and has a picture of a guy sitting on a toilet."

I knew exactly what he meant. :)



Loving these boys.
