1. I Spy I Spy is a classic game that is a great way to build vocabulary and understand language.

One person chooses an object in the room and gives clues about what it is (“I spy with my little eye something that starts with the letter B”).

2. Simon Says To play, choose one player to be Simon and have them give instructions to the other players, such as “Simon says touch your nose” or “Simon says stand up.”

3. Red Light, Green Light Squid Game may have disturbed us with its version of Red Light Green Light, yet this is still a great game to try with preschoolers (minus the massive bloodbath).
