105 Building Language Through Imagination And The Christmas Story, part 1

Hey Friends~ A Very Merry & Happy Christmas to you!!  Children have great imaginations. Their imaginations aid them in social emotional development, cognitive development, physical development, and more! Sometimes that imaginary place seems silly like it doesn’t really have meaning and other times we really see them act out what it is that they’re learning. Today will use the Christmas Story to teach you how to allow and let that imagination flow along with a story, where you are encouraging their imagination to build and grow. This is very important as we want our children to be able to cast a vision in their future life, set goals, and even comprehend stories they hear and stories they read!   Join in for a "Let's Imagine" lesson that builds foundations, gives choice, and without even focusing on it, you are teaching language, building connection, and cognitive development!!  We focus on HOW to move through the story with them.  Watch for next episode when I explain how the language development happens when we use imagination!   Always cheering you on!  Dinalynn   CONTACT the Host, Dinalynn:  [email protected]   RESOURCES from The Language Of Play Sign up for my newsletter!
