Such a small baby might as well play English as learn English. For Xiao Bao Xiao, who has just met the world, this language is no different from Chinese. So, how can we enlighten the baby step by step in Chinese and in English?
First,? Parent-child speaking is the best way to learn English.
According to the natural language acquisition theory of linguists, language learning needs a penetrating environment. This sentence is actually very easy to understand. Most of us can speak Mandarin, and we have never found it difficult to learn Chinese since childhood. In contrast, many of our post-80s parents only started to contact English in junior high school, and many of them have poor spoken English. This is because there is no environmental conditions for learning English, and there is no way to immerse yourself in learning English. So many young parents don't want their babies to suffer at this point, and try their best to create the conditions for English enlightenment at home. For example, at a fixed time every day, regular family members have a parent-child English conversation with their babies. It seems troublesome, but parent-child oral English is a way to quickly improve your baby's oral vocabulary. Just like a baby learning Chinese, the first word a baby learns is usually repeated in daily spoken English. Some precious mothers may say that my spoken English is not very good, and I can't use it in many daily situations, such as changing diapers and feeding. It is recommended that American families use parent-child English, which can meet the needs of most families. All major e-commerce platforms can buy genuine books.
Second,? children's song
When we usually enlighten the baby's language, we usually let the baby listen to nursery rhymes. Children's songs and nursery rhymes that have been circulated for many years are important materials for learning a language. They are usually catchy, rhythmic and easy to recite. Babies are naturally fond of nursery rhymes. Babies will make various movements and imitate various sounds with the rhythm of nursery rhymes. The material for baby grinding ears is recommended "Mother Goose Nursery Rhyme". All major e-commerce platforms can buy genuine books.
Third,? Original English picture book
The original picture book is a necessary reading for English enlightenment. The babies suggested starting with Grandpa Carl's classic picture book. According to my experience, the original picture books are more expensive, so it is not recommended to hoard many books at first. There are many books, so it's useless not to use them. I bought some books recommended by Liao Caixing and Dr. Seuss before, but my baby has limited access to these books. I think sweetheart English is more suitable for the baby's taste. He translates it more frequently.
Fourth,? Family situational games
After reading a picture book or a nursery rhyme, it is suggested to design a family situational game to make it easier for the baby to understand and apply. Language learning is for communication. The intervention of the game can make the baby understand better.
