Ensure you are having fun with your child whilst learning. Children learn through interacting with you and other members of family.

1. A follow on story from The Gruffalo last week,  is The Gruffalo’s Child by Julia Donaldson.

2. Involve your child in putting together your shopping list. Discuss different foods and textures with your child. If you can, try to introduce new foods to your child.

3. Give your child plenty of cuddles, loving touch and close contact every day. Use cuddles and reassurance to ease your child when talking about their feelings and their worries about the current situation.

4. Whilst interacting with your child ask them what songs they know. For example, incy wincy spider or twinkle twinkle little star. Sing together whilst encouraging your child to give you eye contact.

5. Sort out the sock basket. You can ask your child to put them into different piles such as colours, patterns, ankle socks, long socks, adult socks and children’s socks. Discuss with your child the different colours and patterns. After they are in piles pair the socks together.
