“ What makes parents such intuitive language experts?”
I have explored some key elements that, when applied to a second language, work great as well.
Introducing English to children in a natural way.
I want to feel comfortable, be more a guide than a teacher. We follow what children love esp. songs, playing games together, videos – so they mention English almost every day by themselves.
Super Simple Songs for young learners
The best resource I have found at Super Simple Songs. The lyrics are easy to understand and full of useful language that we enjoyed using throughout the day.
English books for beginners
NO textbook can be so interesting for little child such as lift-the-flap books or books with beautiful pictures of animals or other babies. Frequency of listening to the new language is what matters the most.
Montessori inspiration for learning English
“Early learning is closely tied to the movement and sensory stimulation and to repeating activities according to the child’s interests.”
I agree with M. Montessori that little children have amazing ability for figuring out new languages when having “the prepared environment”.
English with all senses and hands
For small children the language is not the priority it is the tool to be used when learning about the world and having fun. I am sharing inspiration and tips for games, discoveries and creative activities.
Follow child’s interests and have fun.
English with kids can be much more than just learning language. On the picture above we have prepared the rainbow in the glass – learned the colors, numbers and names of the things we have used (sugar, water, glass, teaspoon etc.)
