Hear Sounds (Phonological Awareness)
 
Phonological Awareness is the ability to hear and play with the smaller sounds in words. Help your child develop this skill by:  
Birth to 18 months
 
  • Reading nursery rhymes to your child.
  • Singing and dancing in rhythm to music with your child.
  • Saying the sounds of things in the environment (honk, honk) and animals (moo, baa) to your child.
19 months to 3 years
  • Singing and dancing in rhythm to music with your child.
  • Using movements related to sounds. Ask your child to bounce every time he hears a word that starts with the “buh” sound: ball, bounce and bat.
  • Saying the sounds of things in the environment (honk, honk) and animals (moo, baa).
  • Reading rhyming books together.
3 to 5 years
  • Asking your child if words rhyme. “Do ‘car’ and ‘hat’ rhyme?"
  • Making up a silly rhyme together.
  • Clapping syllables of words.
  • Reading rhyming books together.
