Color Game for Learning Disabled Children
Especially good for "Learning Disabled" children!
Help take some of the work out of cleaning bedrooms, by playing
a fun "color" game with your child. Tell your child to pick a
color, such as "purple", & then have them pick up everything
"purple" and put it where it belongs. Then "blue" stuff, then
"red", etc. Before the child realizes it, his/her room is
accidentally getting clean! This helps to reduce the feeling of
being overwhelmed when told to "pick everything up & put it away"
--- which leads to procrastination.
My daughter is 11 & Learning Disabled, and finds it difficult to
stay on task. This has been a life-saver for me!
