Expanding your child’s vocabulary doesn’t have to feel like homework! With a bit of creativity, you can turn learning new words into an enjoying daily adventure. Here are 10 engaging activities to help your kids with learning new words at home.
Introduce new words each day and encourage your child to use them in their daily conversation. Make it fun by writing on sticky notes and try posting them on the fridge. For example “Today’s word is ecstatic. Can you describe the word ecstatic”?
Take turns creating stories together. Challenge each other to use a few new words or some words that are unusual words in the story. For instance, “Once upon a time, a mischievous snake found a peculiar basket”.
Hide cards with new words around the house. Once your child finds it, discuss its meaning and tell them to use the word in a sentence. For a twist, add a clue related to the word’s definition to guide them.
Play different games like Scrabble, Boggle, or Pictionary to make vocabulary building a fun competition. Online apps like Wordscapes can be a great option.
Read together and pause to discuss interesting or unfamiliar words. For example, in a book about animals, stop at “hibernate” and talk about how it relates to bears in winter.
Cooking is a great way to introduce new words. Discuss words like whisk, simmer, and kneed while preparing meals. Bonus: it doubles as a life skill lesson!
Use sticky notes to label items around the house with their names (e.g, “lamp”, “bookshelf”). For older kids, add descriptive words like “shiny lamp” or “wooden bookshelf”.
Songs and Rhymes are perfect for building vocabulary. Sing along to vocabulary rich songs or try to make vocabulary build rhymes. For example, “The cat with a hat sat on a mat, imagine that!”.
Each time member in home learns a new word, write it down put it in the jar. At the end of the week, make sentences using these words or utilize them in mini stories.
Encourage your child to keep a daily journal of their daily adventures. Prompt them to describe their experiences using new words, like “The ride was exhilarating”.
