Practicing tricks: face graffiti
I got some of the "I can't DO IT!!"-s the other day, and after saying "Serenity now!" a few times in my head, I saw a sheet of stickers. New rule - for every part played correctly, she got a sticker on her face. It was so random and unexpected that she started giggling and I knew I had won. S-U-C-C-E-S-S, that's the way you spell success!! Woohoo!!
It reminded me a bit of Becca's awesome bead idea, because I was kind of arbitrary about when I decided she'd played enough right to earn a sticker. It kept her on her toes and out of the crabby zone.
Funny thing - the sticker I put on her chin was of a planet, and as I quickly put it on there and tried to move on, she had to know which on it was. "It has rings," I said impatiently. "So it has to be Saturn."
"But Neptune has rings too! Are you sure it's Saturn??" She asked, and after pulling it off and analyzing it for a bit, declared - "It's blue, so it's definitely Neptune." It's so fun having a 4-year old resident genius!
