Same Words New Voice

Description

Bring storytelling home by saying one supplied line in contrasting voices. A partner guesses the character type from the voice alone.

Cost: FreeBest time: Anytime

Play guide

  1. 1Choose mouse or giant. Say "Who is at the door?" in a comfortable small or low voice while your partner guesses.
  2. 2Swap roles and try a robot using evenly spaced words. Keep the words the same so the voice makes the difference.
  3. 3Let the guesser request their favourite voice for a final line, or add another voice you both already know.

Success signals

The child varies audible delivery and the partner uses it to make a guess.

If it's tricky

Changing voice is awkward: the parent demonstrates two choices and the child selects which to repeat.
