Playing with teddy

When it comes to teaching your baby a new language, toys like teddy bears can be great props. You can use them to encourage conversation with your little one by talking about the teddy’s different features and actions.

Here are some tips to make the most of this experience:

To get started, choose a teddy bear with lots of different features and textures. You can use these features to encourage conversation with your baby by describing the bear’s characteristics in detail.
Use descriptive words to talk about the teddy bear’s physical characteristics and behaviour to help your baby learn new vocabulary and sentence structures.
Pay attention to your baby’s actions with the teddy bear, such as giving it hugs or kisses, and describe what they are doing to help them learn and understand language in context.
