JUNE GAME OF THE MONTH - RED ROVER

Divide everyone into two teams, each forming a long line, holding hands, facing the other team. The two teams should be around 20 or so feet apart. The teams take turn calling out, “Red Rover, Red Rover, let <insert name> come over!” That child leaves their team’s line, runs as fast as they can toward the other line and tries to break through the held hands. If they break through, they get to take someone back to their team. If they don’t, they join the new team. When a team only has one person left, that person tries to break through the other team. If they do not, then their team loses. If they do, they gain a player and play continues.

WHAT EVERY DAD NEEDS FOR FATHER'S DAY THIS YEAR

.

small box
magazines
scissors
glue
pencils / crayons
paper
envelope
string
contact paper
assorted goodies



Decorate a small box with a picture collage from magazines or drawings and secure it with clear contact paper.

What goes inside? Well.... Let's see.... What does dad need to remember that you are thinking of him? Dad needs a photo of you, maybe surrounded by a homemade frame. He'll need a paper heart to remind him you care. A Band-aid in case he needs some TLC. 2 quarters or a Phone card so he can call home. (or ride the pony at the store). A home made ID card with your fingerprints on it so he knows what kid he belongs to. A drawing of you and him eating Mom's cookies together or some other activity you share. A piece of paper, and a stamped, addressed envelope, to mail you a letter. A Hershey's kiss. A personal item such as a rock, if you and dad like to collect them, or a fish hook taped to a card. A USB memory stick or a cassette tape, with you telling dad a bedtime story. An I love you dad note in your best printing. A tracing of your handprint with a piece of string glued around one of the fingers, and words that say "Don't forget, I'm thinking of you". One of your small toys, like a small action figure or doll. So he can think about playing with you. Things you can never find when you need them, a rubber band, a paper clip, a thumb tack, a safety pin. 

Put everything inside the box, tie the box shut with a ribbon or a piece of yarn and label it "Dad's survival kit"

You may want to put your dad's name on it if he's going to be around a lot of other people called Dad too. This is an excellent way for young children to express what they feel dad needs from them and by decorating the box on the outside, it becomes a special piece of artwork from the heart.

AUNTIE MARGARET SEZ: Some dads are away from home and whether on a business trip or out to serving our country, I've found it's really comforting when the kids make Dad a survival kit.
