🍁 Language Tip #1

For a younger child: talk about what you need and what you will get before collecting the materials.

For an older child: Describe the materials that you might need and see if they can guess!

🍁 🍁 Language Tip #2 

Model lots of adjectives when you are collecting leaves!

Eg: Big, Crunchy, Broken, Soft, Dirty, Small, Torn, Crumpled

🍁 🍁 🍁 Language Tip #3

Have one person in charge of the scissors or stapler and everyone needs to ask that person to use the item or tell that person what they need to do with it.

Eg: I want the scissors.
Push down (stapler).
