Children will have fun playing this version of Simon Says. The birthday child can start this game by being Sir Topham Hatt while the others can pretend to be Thomas, Percy, or another favorite character. Only when your child shouts Sir Topham Hatt, do the children follow the command. For example, Sir Topham Hatt says, bend your knees, Sir Topham Hatt says, put your hands on a friend's shoulders, Sir Topham Hatt, pretend you're an engine. If they don't hear Sir Topham Hatt, no one should move. The game should be all about having fun, not winning!
