From scavenger hunts to splashing in puddles and chasing bubbles, everyday play builds vocabulary, sentence skills, and communication.
Try these simple activities outside to help language grow!
1. Scavenger Hunt
- Make a list for your child and try to find the items while playing outside together. This can help build skills like receptive language and descriptive words.
2. Play with Puddles
- After the rain stops, head outside to splash around. This can be a great way to work on verbs or expand simple sentences such as from "jump" to "let's jump in the puddle."
3. Bubbles
- Blow some bubbles outside and use the vocabulary such as "pop" "up" "down" "fun" "more". This can target skills like requesting, turn-taking and concepts such as big, small, up, and down
