All you must do is curate natural opportunities for learning.
Identify your child’s current need in terms of language and embed opportunities carefully and organically.
For Instance:
- While playing with cars you could strike following stretched conversations:
“How is one car different to another? That purple one is my favourite car… Which one is yours? Would you help me park them? Put the big red one behind the blue car, and the tiny grey one in front of the yellow cars.
- Snacking is a good time to engage your little one with textures, tastes, colors of various food items:
“Let’s add lemon to the fruits to make it tangier” How about adding a pinch of salt. Touch and feel it’s grainy texture.” The lemon has seeds in it that are hard and bitter, be careful”
