Work together with your child to invent a story about people you pass on the street. Ask them, “Tell me about that man who just walked by.” See how they respond. You can help them by asking questions like, “What do you think he likes to do for fun?” or “What is his favorite food?” Use your imagination!
See what your child is learning
As you and your child create a story, they use their communication skills to figure out what they want to say and how, in order to be understood. They are also practicing seeing through others’ eyes as they explore how different people might think or feel.
