For example, Simon says \u201ctouch your nose\u201d, while touching your head.

The aim is to end up with 5 stickers- all different colours. Each child has to ask the other child for a sticker in a brave voice and say please and thank you. Afterward you can discuss the importance of being kind and sharing. What would happen if no one had shared a sticker.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/er\/Glenwood\/files\/2020\/06\/ffweek5-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5122 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/er\/Glenwood\/files\/2020\/06\/ffweek5-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"249\" height=\"142\" \/><\/a>Magical sound box: Put different objects, such as keys, paper, beans in a bottle, etc., into a covered box, and then manipulate one of the objects asking a child to tell you what he or she heard.

Then choose someone else in the group to shout out the person&#8217;s name that has their eyes closed. The child then uncovers their eyes and has to guess who shouted out their name.
