Directions:
Play this game at a time when your family is gathered together, such as after dinner. Explain that when Max was bitten by a copy cat, he acted just like his big sister Emmy.
Tell your family that you are really a copy cat. When you tap them on the shoulder, they will all have to copy what the first person says.
Choose a person for family members to imitate. Go around the room and tap family members on the shoulder. Then say, "Copy cat says everyone say what Grandpa says."
Family members should repeat a sentence that person says, then choose another person to copy.
Keep taking turns until everyone in the family has been copied. Talk about what your family would be like if everyone was exactly alike. Would that be a good or a bad thing?
