After singing or telling stories with them, ask if they want more. How do they respond? Do they nod or squirm away? Talk about their actions like, “You said yes!” or “You look like you’re all done.”<\/p>\n Brainy background<\/b><\/em><\/p>\n <\/b>Children learn through repetition and shared back-and-forth conversations. Repeating stories and songs helps your child understand the meaning behind words. It sets the stage for talking, and eventually reading. They’re learning the basics of communication!<\/p>\n \u00a0I hope you\u2019ve been able to take in the\u00a0beautiful cherry blossoms<\/b>\u00a0while they last. There are lots of\u00a0cherry tree art<\/b>\u00a0projects for children to engage with and for a more\u00a0sensorial experience<\/b>, you can make your own 3-D \u00a0bouquet! With a few gathered sticks from outside wrapped together with yarn or another string, stick this into a clay or playdough base. Using torn up bits of pink tissue paper, dipping them into a little dish of white glue and attaching them to the sticks, your little one can\u00a0create a 3-D likeness of these beautiful blossoms<\/b>. Easy and fun! Check out\u00a0howwelearn.com<\/a>\u00a0for step by step pictures.<\/p>\n Here is Anita’s info:\u00a0If you are interested in\u00a0a free one-on-one consultation<\/b> about your child\u2019s development, behavior, parenting tips, tricks and education please email, call or text Anita, to set up either a virtual appointment or a socially distanced visit in one of Burnaby\u2019s many parks.
