TO play criticism, choose one of the children to be criticised. Now
let another child take pencil and paper and ask each one to whisper
something about the child who was chosen, writing the remark down so
as to remember it. Then he must read these sayings and the one who is
criticised must guess who said them. For instance, Jack has asked
every one to say something about Marjorie. When he has finished he
turns to Marjorie. “Some one says you have pretty curls.” Marjorie
guesses Edna.
Jack: “No, you are wrong. Some one says your blue sash is lovely.”
Marjorie: “Grace said that.”
If Grace was the one she must take Marjorie’s place.
Of course only pleasant things must be said about each other.
