In this game, the children have to find their own shoes and put them on. So what's the big deal? Don't we try to get them to do this at least once a day? Here's one strategy you may not want to try at home.

WHAT YOU NEED:

Shoes on the children.

WHAT YOU DO:

Have the kids remove their shoes and pile them together. Someone then scrambles all the shoes and lines up the children, side by side, at the starting line. When the whistle blows, the kids race to put on their shoes and fasten them. Those with siblings have to find them (also with shoes on) before crossing the finish line as a family.
