Fancy a game of Mother may I (Giant steps baby steps) Some suggestions that fill in the Mother/Father/Captain, may I ____? blank include: Take (#) steps forward Take (#) giant steps forward (usually a small number, due to large step size) Take (#) baby steps forward (usually a large number, due to tiny step size) Take (#) umbrella steps forward Hop forward like a frog, (#) times Run forward for (#) seconds Crabwalk forward for (#) seconds Take (#) Cinderella steps - Twirl forward with index finger touching the top of the head Open-and-shut the book (#) times - jump forwards with feet apart then again bringing the feet together Lamppost - lie face down and stretch arms forwards, bring your feet to the point reached by the fingertips If the children are reaching the mother or father too quickly, the mother/father may reject the childs suggestion by replacing it with No, you may not do that, but you may ____ instead. They may reduce the childs original suggestion (for example, reducing five giant steps to three giant steps), or make a different suggestion, such as: Take (#) steps backward Run backward for (#) seconds Walk backward until I (mother/father) say stop
