Goofy Hands

calendar-imgAdd to Daddio Calendar

One person puts on a large sweatshirt or jacket but does not put their arms in. The other person, standing behind the first, puts their arms into the sweatshirt and hides their head inside. Person one talks out a narrative like eating ice cream while person two pretends to be their arms. Capture it on video for a hilarious display of coordination or lack thereof!

Why it’s worthwhile:

  • Creativity
  • Fun / Laughter
  • Bonding
  • Memories
  • Happiness
