Here is a super Easy Scary flashcard game that my kindergarten students used to love.
Age： 3-8
Materials: Flashcards + 1 scary flashcard, such as a ghost, monster or vampire.
How to play: Show the children the flashcards one by one and have them repeat after you. Explain that when it gets to the scary card they need to run away and touch the wall behind them (or a desk, bookshelf, or locker) and they will be safe from the scary image on your card.
For example
Teacher: Blue!
Students: Blue
Teacher: Red!
Students: Red!
Teacher: Yellow!
Students: Yellow!
Teacher: It’s a monster!!!
Students: ahhhhhhhh! (students run away and touch the wall)
When playing with small children they may cry when they see the scary card, so it’s a good idea to demonstrate the came first with three or four students in front of the class.
Safety
As with all games, it’s important to demonstrate that they have to be careful when running, and take care not to push each other.
Variations
If you don’t have much space, or if they are sitting at desks, you can make them hide from the scary card instead of running away.
