2. Whose Kiss?
Blindfold the mother, then
have a couple of the
children in attendance kiss
her on the cheek. Give each
child a number and have
the mother guess which
number her child is. Give a
few Hershey’s Kisses to the
mother-child who guesses
correctly.

3. Mother – Child
All mothers stand in a circle.
Then all children form a
circle around them. The
inner and outer circles
contain an equal number of
people. Each mother should
be with their child. Mothers
begin walking clockwise
while the children walk
counterclockwise.

4. A leader then interrupts by
calling out “Birdie on a perch”
At that moment, both circles
stop and children must find
their mother. The mother must
place the child on her knee.
The slowest mother and child
to assume the designated
position is eliminated.
Continue until one couple is
left.

5. Variation
Instead of calling out
“Birdie on a perch” call out
two body parts and in a
position couples must
assume. For instance, one
might call out, ”Wrist to
nose!” or “Knee to elbow”.

6. Silhouettes
Set up a sheet so that if
someone is standing
behind it you can’t see
them, only their shadow.
You can then place
mothers behind the sheet
and have children try to
identify their mother, or
vice-versa.
