Here is Amiri at Story Hour at the library last week. He raised his hand, went up to the front, got the correct answer, and had some fun while he was at it. I was so proud of my big boy!
The librarian is dressed as a wizard. At home, we still play a game she taught us:
Wizard says wave your wand! wave your hand about as if you are casting a spell
Wizard says ride a broomstick! knees together, clasping your imaginary broomstick
Wizard says Sleeping Beauty! lay down, eyes closed
Wizard says stir the cauldron! stir a giant pot with a giant spoon
Wizard says kiss a frog! go and kiss a member of your family, this is hilarious
Wizard says proud prince! hands on hips, chest out and chin up
Wizard says leaping toad! hop hop hop on all fours
Wizard says wizard hat! make a cone over your head with your arms
Wave your wand! AAAAHHHH!! I didn't say 'Wizard Says'! You're out!!

What a fun game! This most certainly is the Kiwi version of 'Simon Says' and revives some happy memories. Best thing about the game is that it builds imagination, interactive and listening skills in such a fun way! I'll bet the parents have a ball with this too!
Thanks for sharing your Story Hour with us!
Amiri already has more social skills than I did at that age. I would never have been brave enough to go up in front like that. Good for him.
Of course, I did a puppet show in first grade and that was the end of my public speaking until Toastmasters came along years later. Uncle Doug read my sad, embarrassing story about that.
Anyway, good for Amiri. Soon Arram will be up there also.
