A really fun activity for little ones and big ones alike is to play the game of "Simon Says" w ith an Orthodox twist. Substitute out Simon for one of the Saints, Panagia, or Jesus and select actions that reflect our faith. Here are a few examples to get you started... Panagia says... 1. Make the sign of the cross Panagia says... 2. Find an icon in the room Panagia says... 3. Give a kiss to that icon (venerate) Panagia says... 4. Touch the floor (like a metanoia) 5. **Point your finger at another person in the room** (oops, Panagia didn't say to do that!) Panagia says... 6. Sing "Kurie Eleison" like the leader Panagia says... 7.Give someone in the room a high-five 8. ** Cover your eyes** (oops, Christ wants us to walk in His light not stay in darkness** Panagia says... 9. Get down on your knees to pray Panagia says... 10. Say Amen Panagia says... 11. Give someone a hug 12. ** Tell your neighbor a secret ** (oops, Panagia doesn't want us to gossip) Encourage
