How it works

  1. 1

    First, let's get your child interested. Pick up one object, like the colorful cup. Hold it up where your child can see it, make an excited face, and say 'Look what I found!'

  2. 2

    Now let's encourage your child to share something back. Hold out your hand and say 'Can you show me something?' or 'What do you want to show me?'

  3. 3

    When your child shows you something, respond with excitement! Say 'Wow! You're showing me the [object name]!' Make eye contact and smile.

  4. 4

    Let's extend the sharing. When your child shows you something, say 'Thank you for showing me! Can I see it?' Reach out gently as if to take it, then immediately give it back.
