English & Pre-Literacy Foundations
Your child is tuned into the sounds of spoken language. They can clap out syllables in their name, recognize familiar rhyming words in songs, and mimic animal sounds.
In real life
Singing a song like Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, your child notices that star and are sound the same. They love playing with words and making silly, rhyming nonsense sounds.
