No Time to Waste

Grab a timer and see what your kid can do in 60 seconds!
Submitted by

<!-- -->
Challenge your little speed racer to find out how much he can do in a minute. How many times can he hop on one foot? Jump up and down? Sing "Old McDonald?" Seven? 19? A bazillion?
  • A watch
    Anything with a second hand.
  • Time
    Quality time, actually.
  • The DO-er
    Your child.
  • The Timer
    Mom or dad.
  • Pen and paper
  • 1
    We already know that you can say "No" 1 million times per minute, but what can junior do?
  • 2
  • 3
  • 4
    Have him perform the task as many times as he can.
  • 5
    Write it down next to his guess. He might be shocked to find that he actually can't take his t-shirt on and off 4,000 times in 60 seconds!
  • 6
    Your child will soon realize that putting on his clothes takes more time than doing a jumping jack.
  • For wee ones, this game helps them grasp the concept of time (and how fleeting it is). For older kids, it's a chance to set a world's record. Imagine, your child in Guinness for the most burps in a minute. Talk about a good time!
  • Get more use from your kitchen timer by timing your little competitors in Nick Jr.'s Krabby Walk Relay Race.
