Sound Safari (Pick Your Version!)
Today’s play prompt is Sound Safari a low-prep game that turns “stuck energy” into curiosity. It works great when the house feels loud… or when everyone needs a gentle reset.
The mission:
Say: “We’re going on a Sound Safari. Our job is to find sounds and figure out what made them.”
Version 1: Quiet Safari (calm + focused)
Set a timer for 1 minute and whisper:
- “How many quiet sounds can we notice?”Listen for: heater, fridge hum, footsteps, breathing, cat purring, clock ticking.
Then ask: “Which sound was the tiniest?”
Version 2: Loud Safari (big energy + boundaries)
Pick a “sound zone” (kitchen or living room) and set 3 rules:
- No screaming
- One sound at a time
- We copy, then we stop
Take turns making sounds:
- tap a spoon, crinkle paper, stomp, clap, drum on a pillow
Then ask: “Which sound felt best in your body?”
Version 3: Mystery Sound (giggles + guessing)
Behind a pillow or blanket, make a sound and have them guess:
- shake keys, zip a jacket, pour water, snap fingers, tear tape
Then switch roles. Kids LOVE being the sound-maker.
If you play today, comment SAFARI and tell me which version you chose: quiet, loud, or mystery.
