Simon says
Everyone stands in front of the phone. Tap Start and listen carefully!
How to play
- Everyone lines up where they can hear the phone. Tap Start.
- A call with "Simon says": do it right away. A call without "Simon says" is a trick: stay still.
- Fooled? Say "oops!" and keep playing; nobody is out. For a harder game pick 🐇 Fast.
Every few seconds the phone reads an action (slow 6 s, fast 4 s). About 1 in 4 calls is a trick without "Simon says", and there are never two tricks in a row. Anyone fooled says "oops!" and keeps playing; nobody is out. Every action can be done on the spot.
Ideas for using it
- Learning English: a classic for kids, every call is a short action to hear and copy.
- Birthday parties and rainy days: everyone lines up in the living room, nothing to set up.
- In class: a 5-minute warm-up, and the teacher can play too because the phone is Simon.
