This game is similar to teaching vocabulary charades. Happily, you, the parent, actually get to play and guess with abandon!

Pick ten cards or so from the flashcard pile that you and your child are already familiar with. Place the cards on the table, picture side down. Each player takes turns choosing a card and acting it out. Other players call out the SPANISH meaning of the action. If a child is not yet reading, he simply refers to the picture.

The first person to say the correct Spanish word wins and then keeps that card. At the end, the player with the most cards wins.
