This is the first post and has nothing to do with Salesforce. Here is a game I invented a couple of weeks ago that actually worked for about an hour.
Requirements
- Some bored children (probably won’t work over the age of 5, YMMV).
- Some parents in need of a drink.
- One green coloured drink or drink in a green container (henceforth this shall be known as the “Go drink”).
- One red coloured drink or drink in a red container (henceforth this shall be known as the “Stop drink”).
- Some way of fashioning a course or circuit in your house or garden (the outside of a dining table for instance can become the race track).
Instructions
- Inform the bored children of the route of the course laid out.
- Determine parent to drink the green drink. Inform the children that this means they need to start running.
- Determine parent to drink the red drink. Inform the children that this means they need to stop running.
- Start enjoying your evening.
- This has a side benefit of tiring the children, making bedtime a breeze.
Try it out, let me know in the comments how it goes…
