Dyeing Easter Eggs! 🥚 Here are some language tips for when you are prepping and dyeing eggs with your little one(s)! 🌸🌸🌸
🌸 Describe what you and your little one are doing from their perspective or a joint perspective. (Include action and location words!) This is great for building vocabulary skills.
🌸 Give choices!
🌸 Model and *wait*, give your child the chance to respond. It is okay if they don’t repeat what you modeled.
*Use a white crayon to draw little designs on before dipping in dye.
🌼 Here are some examples of phrases you can model: Ouch, hot water!, Time to ___, Eggs are ready!, I pick ___, Time to dip!/ Dip it in!, Take it out!, Holy Cow!, Uh-oh!, Wow!, Look!, I need help/ Help me, Let’s do more!, I like it!/ I don’t like it!, All done!
🌼 Here are some basic concepts & verbs: hot / cold, wet / dry, in / out, dip / drop, color / draw, dye / paint, wait, splash, roll, crack
Enjoy making memories together! Have fun and get messy! Happy Easter! 🌸
If you have any questions or concerns regarding your child’s speech and language skills, reach out to schedule a phone consultation. ✨
