Some Fun Things To Do!
Help your child learn a new word. Maybe it will be a secret word the two
of you share! Some families teach their children a “family word” to
be used only in emergency situations.
Find things which are all the same color, shape, size, type etc. when
you are on a walk or car/bus ride. Have your child keep track of them and talk
about them.
Give your child a calendar of their own. Help them mark important dates
in different colors.
Let your child “teach” you something! Go along with their
directions and see what happens.
Sign up for a class and let your child see you actively engaged in
learning.
