hand except the index finger. Fold it down

knuckle against your folded left index

2. Dance the Hand Jive

Take a trip back in time with this dance

craze from the 1950s, made popular again in
the late 1970s by the hit movie Grease. Kids
love to learn it.
Here’s how it goes:
1.Pat your thighs twice.
2.Clap twice.
3.Wave your hands, one over the other, in front
of your chest. Then do it with the other hand on

3. Miss Mary Mack

This classic clapping game likely dates as far

back as the Civil War, although its exact origins
remain a mystery. It’s a more complex version of
Pat-a-Cake, with knee slaps, pinky hooks, and
more. Show your grandchild how you used to play!

4. Odd or Even

This is a great hand game to help two

grandchildren settle a dispute — who gets to
go first, who gets to sit in the front seat, etc.
It’s a simple game of chance.
Each player holds one hand behind their
back, and secretly chooses to put out one
finger or two. One player calls odd or even
and says, “One, two, three, shoot.

5. R o c k , P a p e r, S c i s s o r s
Need a game to play on the fly? This is it. It’s
easy, quick, and addictive for kids of all ages. On
the count of three, each player “throws” his fist
into the middle.
To make Rock, make a fist; for Paper, hold your
hand out flat; and for Scissors, extend your
middle and indexfingers.If players make the same
gesture, the game goes on. If not, the winner is
decided by a harmonic and intransitive method
— Rock crushes Scissors; Scissors cuts Paper;
Paper covers Rock.

6. Slaps
Despite its name, you don’t have to leave each
other red-handed to enjoy this game of manual
quickness. Start by placing your hands out in front of
you, palms up.
Have your grandchild place their hands, palms down,
on top of yours. Your hands should not rest against
each other, but should just barely touch as they hover
in midair.
Your objective is to quickly bring your hands around
your opponent’s and tap the backs of their hands. Your
opponent tries to anticipate this maneuver, pulling
their hands away to avoid the tap.

7.Thumb Wrestle
This timeless kids’ game is a fun diversion in
any dull moment. Clasp hands so your fingers curl
together and your thumbs face each other,
pointing up.
Together, announce: “One, two, three, four, I
declare a thumb war.” Then, using only your
thumb, attempt to pin the other person’s thumb
to their hand before they can pin yours.

8.Which Hand Is It In?
Young kids delight in this disappearing-object
game. All you need is something small enough to
ball up in your fist so that no one else can see
that it’s in there: a penny, a marble, a rolled-up
piece of paper, etc.
Put your hands behind your back, concealing the
object in one. Then show your grandkid both
fists. They will love guessing which hand hides
the object, especially if they get to keep the prize
once it’s found.

9.Pat-a-Cake
Remember this two-person clapping game?
Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker’s man Bake me a
cake as fast as you can Pat it and prick it and mark
it with a B Put it in the oven for baby and me
The basic clapping pattern alternates between
clapping your hands and clapping against your
partner’s. From there you and your grandchild
can throw in your own creative sequences to
spice up the game.

10. Teeple People
This classic hand game for young children is easy
to play and has a fun rhyme to say. Here’s a refresher
course if it’s been a while.
Fold your hands together with fingers interlaced
downward and hidden between your hands: “Here is
the church.”
Raise your index fingers and point them together
toward the sky: “Here is the steeple.”
Open your thumbs: “Open the doors.”
Keep your fingers interlocked and turn over your hands
so your fingers are facing up. Wriggle them as you say:
“And see all the people!”

11. Create a Special Handshake
One thing that hasn’t changed about kids: they love
being a part of an exclusive club. Create your own by
making up a handshake only you and your grandchild
know.
Here are two kinds you can try, a secret handshake and a
fancy handshake:
1. A secret handshake incorporates a discreet signal, like
a quick squeeze
2. e or a thumb pressing on a knuckle that only club
members can know (or see).
2. A fancy handshake, on the other hand, you can show off
to everyone.Slap the back of your hands, snap, high five,
whatever feels fun.
