Preparation
Step 1: Gather images either on your computer or in a magazine. Make sure the images are about the size of your palm or smaller.
Step 2: Cut the images out. Take a piece of tape, roll it into a small cylinder and place the tape on the back of the image.
Activity
Step 1: Sit on the floor with your little one and tell him that you are going to play a fun game using pictures. Tell him you are going to put different pictures on him. He has to take them off and then hand them to you.
Step 2: Start with the "bows" image. You can place the bows image on your child’s toes or his nose.
Step 3: After he takes the image off, show him the picture and say the word. Then tell him where he found the bows. You might say:
“This is a picture of some bows. You found them on your toes! Bows and toes, bows and toes!”
Step 4: Proceed with another image. The following images correspond to the following body parts:
- Pies and eyes
- Tears and ears
- Vase and face
Step 5: Try to use one image at a time and continue to play until he signals that he is ready for something new.
