Becca recommends
#1. Building Vocabulary by using nouns and actions.
#2. Talk about color and size.
Compare the different ingredients and their various sizes.
#3. Comment and Describe
Encourage words.
Help facilitate comments such as this is sweet, sticky, tasty, salty, etc…
#4. Help your child with sequencing and recalling information.
Follow the sequence of the recipe and emphasize
the steps of the recipe.
#5 Answering and asking “WH” questions:
What are we making?
What color is a strawberry?
When did we put the strawberries into the mix?
Tip: Encourage your children to ask questions.
If your child has difficulty with this, have a list of questions either written down or in picture form to help facilitate them asking questions.
