10 few. The more serious thinking
games, such as anagrams, are ex-
cellent for the older members Of
the family.
One word Of caution, however,
when it comes to playing games of
any kind with youngsters. Don't
select those that may be too difiicult
and which give you distinct advan-
tage over the children. Remember,
they want to win sometimes, too.
II you beat them at games consist
emily or constantly show them UP
to disadvantage 1t will be very
bad for their morale. Children are
only human, after all. and they do
not relish being excelled any more
than do the rest of us. Keep this
In mind and when you suggest play
ing a, game, try one in which the
children have an equal chance Of
winning J. at least part of the
time. They will love it and you will
win their confidence in a friendly,
natural way.
Another suggestion for enjoying
your family is to let your children
help you entertain especially
when the party is informal. This
is good way to prevent those out
breaks OF exhibitionism to which so
many children seem addicted. You
can help avoid this situation by hav-
ing them accustomed to entertaining
and guests in the house. Make the
youngsters part of your entertain
ment committee they can open
the front door, help guests of with
their things, take them out to see
the garden. And there is no doubt
that they can help lot when it
comes time to serve refreshments.
A youthful cook would probably be
delighted to aid in the preparations
and show off her skill. The daugh-
ter Of the house can be Of great
assistance in the kitchen making
sandwiches, brewing coffee and even
tossing off batch of hot biscuits
or some waffles. The younger gen.
Grafton can help in serving the
guests.
