FromActing Out, Rae Pica
What to have No additional materials are needed for this activity.
What to do Whisper the word bread or butter into the ear of each child. Try to whisper an equal number of each word. Then give the children a signal to start walking around the room. When they come face-to-face with another player, the two children say their assigned roles. If one says, “Bread,” and the other says, “Butter,” they hug, fist-bump, or high- five and then go on their way. If both children say the same word, they just move along. The goal is to “butter” as much “bread” as possible before you signal the children to stop.
Why To promote cooperation and flexibility. To promote matching skills.
