This is our philisophy at Mômji: the earlier a language is introduced, the easier it will be to assimilate!
Learning a foreign language from a very young age has several advantages for your child: it develops his/her cognitive abilities, opens his/her mind and prepares him/her for the future.
But finding activities they like is not that easy. In this article, we offer you three ideas of activities to encourage children to learn English!
#1 Sports and fitness
You don't have to be fluent to shake your body! And you listen to an English speaker animating a sport session, you can improvge your level in English without having the impression of making efforts.
"Hi everyone", "Next", "30 seconds", "You can do it!" "Stay with me", "Rest" ... so many expressions with which we encourage you to get used to with your children.
Take a look at Joe Wicks' YouTube account, which invites you to follow his short sports sessions. This 33 year old British father offers original videos with a very British sense of humor.
#2 Craft activity in English
"I spie with my little eye... a rrrrr" "rabbit !"
Check out this video to learn how to play this game with young children and teach them phonic distinction. It is recommended to play in French for 2-5 year olds before starting to read and recognize the different sounds.
In English, for children from 3 to 7 years old, this game helps to strengthen their vocabulary and pronunciation in English.
#3 Play board games in English
Rediscover your board games by playing in English: 7 families, Scrabble, small bac or even little horses to learn the numbers in English.
To release the energy of your little kids, you can also play Twister!
And you can draw or paint a board of snakes and ladders, the equivalent of the game of goose in English. Discover the rules and the game board.
We hope you found your happiness in our selection of activities to do in English.
Come on, let's play!
