Wait For Two

One raisin now, or two if you can wait for the timer.

  1. 1Put one raisin out. They can eat it whenever they like.
  2. 2Set a timer for one minute.
  3. 3If it is still there when the timer goes, they get two.
4 minutes You need: raisins, timer

Why it helps: Waiting: finding something else to do while they wait, like when dinner is not ready yet.
