Say More
Pick the words that tell more: a red car, a sleeping cat.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. 10 minutes or less.
For grown-ups
Your child listens for describing words (color, size, how it looks) and practices telling more, clearly. We suggest reading it together.

- Try it with a grown-up! Play I Spy with describing words: I spy something round and redβ¦
