Did you know your child should be learning 8 new words a day?
Children need to learn new words to extend their vocabulary.
Our Toddlers enjoyed looking at and tasting lemons and kiwi fruit.
New words were introduced during the activity such as lemon, kiwi fruit, knife, chop, sharp, sour, tangy, seeds, furry, squeeze and hairy.
We also made lemon water to drink with our lunch.
At home you could try this activity using different foods to see what new words you could introduce to your child.
We would love to see any photographs of you activities and any new words your child used.
Make sure to send them by email or bring them to your child's key person
Have fun!
