The other night the kids & I were jumping on the trampoline, which is a challenge when big kids and little kids are trying to jump at the same time. Chase (our undersized 3 year old) usually ends up on his bum a lot, or landing close to the edge, so I will often just hold him and jump. Well, we were trying to take turns--Chase, then everyone else, back and forth. After a little while, and when frustration had started building because everyone wanted to jump ALL the time, we decided to play "Simon Says." We took turns being Simon, and finally it was Chase's turn. Chase's first command was, "Simon says, everyone sit down." Want to guess his next one? "Simon says, WATCH ME JUMP!" =)
