Activity/strategy name and materials required	How to do the activity	Key principles for doing the activity and comments
Impossible task! Materials as needed, for example: Pictures for cutting out e.g. old Argos catalogue Scissors Simple board game Blunt pencil Pencil sharpener Paper Equipment for an activity the child enjoys Bubbles	Ask the child to carry out tasks without giving them the equipment they need. For example: Ask the child to cut out a picture but do not provide any scissors. Attempt to play a simple board game but do not provide a dice. Ask the child to write their name but have only a blunt pencil; do not provide a pencil sharpener. Put the equipment you need for an activity the child enjoys somewhere the child can see it but not reach it, such as on a high shelf. Produce a bottle of bubbles without the bubble wand inside.	If a child does not request anything, you can try to motivate the child to correct you or "help you", for example: look confused; look confused, and say "oh..." "no...scissors!"; give the child a ruler instead to cut the paper; See also suggestions here: make a choice at snack time
