1.Toss, Fetch and Catch - which are variations of games where you use a soft, lightweight object such as a foosball or soft stuffed toy and either you or the bird tosses it and you or the bird catches it.
2.Place birdy items in a drawer the bird can get into. Like your clean sock drawer. Hide surprises in there like walnuts and new foot toys and let the birdy find them.
3.Singing games, like Itsy Bitsy Spider, BINGO, When you're Up, etc.
4.Flying through the air games with the bird on your hand and you steady the bird and take it through the house.
5.Pick up - the bird tosses something off and you either laugh or say Uh Oh and pick up the item over and over and over

12.Get on the floor with your bird and play with them. Take toys and even a box of soda straws and let them dump them and play with them while you play too. Just about every activity you do with them on the floor,even watching television together down there, is interactive and special to the bird.
