| Can you spot the cheater in the group? |
This game was suggested as a
fun activity following a lesson surrounding healthy foods for the children of
Khula Nomathiya Crèche. It has since been a hit with children both from
Inkanyezi Crèche and Simunye Crèche.
In
preparation for the apple game you will need:-
* A bag of
apples (consider the number of children who may be partaking)
* A ball of
string
* A knife
The simplicity
of the game is grand.
The apples
are quartered and punctured in the middle.
Thread is strung through the pieces.
String is hung from one level to a next at a height slightly above the heads of the
children.
Ask the children to try and eat a piece with their hands behind their backs... keep
your eyes on them! They will try and sneak their hands out!
It is a
brilliant just how much the children enjoy this game, their eyes wide as the
string and apples get strung and their cute desperation as they contemplate how
to get the apple pieces without using their hands. Their attention is easily held here because they like to
check out how their fellow classmates fair!
