Pretend play with your child
GAME: Kidney Quest INSTRUCTIONS: In this game, you and your child take turns pretending to be the kidneys. Use a soft ball to represent waste and toss it back and forth, catching it with a cupped hand to "filter" the waste like kidneys do. The goal is to see how many successful filters you can achieve without dropping the ball. Have fun while learning about the vital role of kidneys together!
