ActivityÌý

Step 1:ÌýTell your child that you are going to play a fun game called Whack-A-Rhyme!Ìý

Step 2:ÌýTell him that you are going to say a word and you want him to think about a picture that rhymes. Instruct him to think about it in his head but wait to touch it until you say the command: Whack-A-Rhyme! When you give the command, he can gently whack the rhyming word with the flyswatter. For example, you might say:Ìý

"I’m going to say a word and I want you to look at the pictures on the wall and think about one that rhymes with it. But don’t touch it until I say, 'Whack-A-Rhyme!' Ready? The word I am thinking about is log. Do you see a picture that rhymes with log? Wait! Don’t touch it until I give the command. OK — Whack-A-Rhyme! You picked the dog. That’s great! Dog rhymes with log."

Step 3:ÌýContinue with other rhyming words.Ìý

Place only three to four pictures on the wall to choose from.Ìý

Once your child finds a rhyming word, see if he can think of another word that rhymes. It can be a real word or a pretend word.Ìý
