This is a game all about encouraging your wee ones  to
speak and learn new concepts, by asking them to ’feel how’
certain things will have certain qualities.

What you can use:

• Toys or objects
• Material
• Whatever is around you!

What to do:

1. Try grabbing something close by  you and your wee one like a toy
bear and saying ’Feel how soft teddy’s
tummy is!’ You could make a wee box or basket with different textured objects to explore.
2. This is all about encouraging them to
explore words using their senses, and
talking directly to them will give them
confidence about their own speaking.
3. Try to keep it simple to start with and
don’t overload them with lots of different
examples until they’re ready. Keep returning
to the same idea to scaffold their
learning.
