Sleeping Lions
It’s important for kids to learn how to stay focused
despite distractions. Sleeping Lions is a fun way for kids to learn this
important life skill. During this preschool game, all the children lie down and
pretend to be asleep. Then one person walks among the group (without touching
anyone, trying to convince kids into reacting and opening their eyes. The last
kid to still look like they’re “sleeping” is the winner.
Sleeping lions encourages kids to be silly as they try
to wake up their peers. To stay “asleep,” kids have to keep themselves focused
on not moving a muscle—no matter how their peers try to distract them. That’s
extremely hard for young children to do, and the focusing they practice during
Sleeping Lions will help a child later on when they’re trying to learn in
boisterous environments.
