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.
