Sit opposite your child. Explain that you are going to say a word
and that he/she must say the opposite. For example, if you say
“tall” your child will say “short.” Accept any reasonable answer.
When you have played the game in this manner for a while, switch
roles and let your child initiate game play by saying a word that
requires a response from you.
