Waiting in line at the store is a great chance to be a brain builder. Point to a picture on a magazine and ask your child, “How do you think that man feels?” You can also look for different letters like, “Look, here’s a B just like in your name. It says ‘baseball’ on the magazine.”
See what your child is learning
This game gives your child an early reading experience. They’re learning to read the meaning of pictures, to see how pictures and words work together, and hear how letters sound. Not only are you developing literacy skills, you’re showing them how to manage the boredom of waiting in line!
