Bubble Hunt (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798986634913)

You are never too young or old to enjoy the magic of BUBBLE PLAY.

The words and pictures in Bubble Hunt were carefully chosen and designed to give some direction into what words, gestures, and sounds could be modeled to encourage communication. Functional language development occurs in the precious time together enjoying simple repetitive words in books and combining them with real objects (bubbles, wagon, stuffed animals) and conducted in a playful manner. The little ones won't even notice that they are working on sound production, language (both understanding and expressing), non-verbal communication (pointing, reaching, showing), and social communication! While talking about the pictures and/or reading the words, feel free to be animated and act out the gestures/ motions, model the animal (woof, quack) and environmental sounds (pop), move the stuffed animals to varying locations (in the wagon, on Mommy's head), encourage the imitation of the actions/words (showing big and small with hands), and blow some bubbles up high and down low! You can even expand the story to create your own hunt by hiding the animals or engage family members to blow bubbles and have your child find them. Language growth is all in the interaction and play! Enjoy the bubble fun with the whole family...young or older!
