What's Different?

accessories
Time:  20 minutes

Materials:  hat, belt, scarf, sunglasses, and jewelry

Activity:  Have your child study you for a few moments, then walk out of the room and change something about your appearance.  Return and ask your child to guess what is different about you.

Suggested Script:   Keep it obvious for young children like taking off your shoes and socks, putting on or taking off a hat, putting your shirt on backwards.  For older children you can be more subtle with jewelry.

Other Activities:  Let the child have a chance to be the one who changes.
