[Encourage Language Tips]
Cooking with your kids is also a great way to facilitate language.
Here are some tips from speech-pathologist and author, Becca Eisenberg, and you can find her over on lifeskills2learn.com.
[Recommendations to get you started]
#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 encouraging 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 them ask questions.
