Adapting ‘I spy’ for children of different ages The first person to guess correctly gets the next turn to choose an object. Players take turns to call out guesses until someone gets the right answer. For example, if the player chooses a fence, they say, ‘I spy with my little eye something beginning with F’. The player gives the first letter of the object as a clue. The player who starts picks an object that everyone can see. You could choose the youngest person, or the person whose name starts with the letter closest to the start of the alphabet. You just need to be able to look around and talk with your child. That’s because your child has to think of the names of objects and the letters they begin with, if they can. ‘I spy’ is also great for building your child’s vocabulary and understanding of language. When your child waits for their turn, they're learning how to play and cooperate with others. ‘I spy’ is a turn-taking game, so it helps to develop your child’s social skills.

I've discussed how playing I Spy games with kids can improve comprehension in kids with autism and hyperlexia before. Playing I Spy with your kids is also a great way to improve speech, language, vocabulary, and comprehension skills. This printable requires kids to visually scan through the objects and find ones that are the same. They also help develop a child's visual tracking ability and improve visual discrimination.
