2. Where’s the toy?
Now that your child has been introduced the prepositions vocabulary, it’s time to practice. Take your child’s favorite mini toy (the one that can fin in a cup) and a transparent plastic cup. Place the toy on, in, under, behind, or by the cup and ask your child ”Where’s the toy?”. It’s a quick and easy activity that you can practice every day. And as it includes your child’s favorite toy it will be easy for them to memorize the vocabulary and the actions.
3. On, in, under dance
Dance and music are the best way to learn specific words, especially if the song is repetitive and goes along with gestures that explain the vocabulary. In this video about prepositions in English, you can see the dance and the gestures for the prepositions you have to learn with your child. Once you have practiced the actions, turn up the volume and sing the song “We’re going on a bear hunt ” and go in an adventure with our friends!
