Season 2022 Episode 26

Here's a fun literacy-building activity. Ask your child to pull objects out of a bag for example. Start with five things. For each, ask your child to write down one word they associate with the object. These descriptive words become their vocabulary list. They can describe what the objects have in common. This activity can be done on a trip, in a restaurant, or at home.
