When you're in a waiting room with your child or anywhere where you need to 'kill' a few minutes, you can play this easy rhyming game. The parent starts by saying, 'I'm thinking of a word that rhymes with ____ and it starts with ___.' For example, you could say 'I'm thinking of a word that rhymes with BED and it starts with H.' Your child would then yell out 'HEAD'. For older kids, you don't have to provide the starting letter.
Materials Needed: Just your imagination!
Ages: 3-6 year olds
We love word games for the car so we'll defintiely try this one!

The first time you play, especially with younger children, you'll need to model the rhyming so they get the idea.
