Reverse Writing
Challenge your older child, with a pencil and paper! Can they write
a sentence backwards, without looking in the mirror. Sounds easy enough
for the letters O, A, and M, but what about J, F, and R ? Can they
write you a secret message?
Look at Me
Have your child observe you for a minute. Leave the room. Return to
the room, having changed a small detail in your appearance. Remove an
earring, put on some lipstick or change your hair. Can they guess what
has changed?
