Make up a song with your Child
Music can be a great tool to enhance language learning for your child. Research has shown that singing songs can help children learn new words and improve their language skills. You can make up songs about anything that interests your child in the target language. Your child will love hearing their name or other familiar words in the songs they sing.
Here are some helpful tips:
- As a parent or caregiver, you can use this to your advantage by making up songs about anything that interests your child in the target language.
- You could sing about their favourite toys, animals, or even foods. Incorporating familiar words and phrases into the songs will help your child recognise and remember them better.
- To make the learning process even more fun and interactive, you could make a song about your daily routine or upcoming plans in the target language.
Music can be an excellent tool to aid in your child’s language-learning journey. By using familiar words and phrases in the songs, making songs about daily routines or upcoming plans, and creating songs about their interests, you can make the learning process fun and engaging.
