How can children benefit from this game? Good way to learn how to react and socialize
Alright, I will tell you about a very simple but extremely famous game played in
kindergartens all around the world. The game is called "Duck, duck, goose" and I remember
playing in pre-school and possibly in primary school too.
As a child, my parents sent me to an English school where some Chinese teachers taught us
in English. We would play games and join in a few activities while speaking English and learning
new words. It was very easy but we learned the basics before going to primary school. Whenever
the weather allowed it, we would go outside to play different games in English.
My favorite was called "Duck, duck, goose." A group of children sit in a circle facing inward.
One child is "it" and walks around the circle. As the child walks around the circle, he taps every
child's head and says whether they are a "duck" or a "goose." Once someone is called a "goose",
he or she must get up and try to chase the child who tapped his head. The goal of the goose is to
tag the child before he or she is able to sit down in the goose's spot. If the goose is not able to do
this, he or she becomes "it" and starts tapping heads again. If the goose manages to tag the child
who hit him on the head, then "it" has to sit in the middle of the circle and cannot leave until
someone else is tagged.
These games were a lot of fun because children like to run and laugh. I remember that our
teachers used to play with us and chase us like crazy around the circle.
Kindergarten is a time to learn how to coexist with others and this game definitely brings kids
closer together because they have to touch and catch each other. In addition, it is essential to teach
children to react fast. As soon as the child taps your head and calls you "goose", it is important to
realize and get up as quickly as possible. I think it is a creative and fun game even if it seems a bit
naive when I describe it.
