In this game, you and your child name different kinds of dogs, or things associated with dogs (such as doghouse, collar).

Take turns naming dogs or objects that relate to dogs.

If your child can't think of anything, give her clues such as, "what do you take a dog on a walk with to keep him from running away from you?" The answer would be leash.

Or, "what do you put water in for a dog to drink out of?" The answer would be "bowl".

If your child comes up with something that is not dog related, explain to her why it's not.

When you're done, ask your child to draw her favorite dog.

You can play this game with different categories such as cats, horses, birds or other categories you come up with.

You can ask what a bird builds to sleep in or what a cat likes to catch with a tail (a mouse!).

This is one of the good kids party games, too.

Have the kids sit in a circle and go around the circle asking each child to name a type of dog or object she associates with a dog.

Or get creative and play pin the tail on the doggie or horsey as a fun party game!

Enjoy these animal games for kids.
