The listening is a basic ability for learning, besides being closely related to oral expression, it is very important to stimulate this in the child’s first stages of life. The following exercise help to enhance listening abilities. It is recommended to practice them as a “game”, showing a lot of interest in what the children are doing and participating actively and being a model for them.
*Cover your child’s eyes, make sounds with different objects (bells, whistles, rattles, etc.). Ask the children to identify the sounds.
*Listen to different kinds of music, such as: instrumental, classical, etc. and encourage them to move to the rhythm.
*Listen the TV or radio in a low volume.
*Talk in a soft voice, making voice reflex ions (surprise, happiness, anger, sadness) and ask your child what you are feeling.
*Try telling stories emphasizing intonation and environment sounds (wind, rain, thunder, falling objects, etc.)
*Play imitating voices and sounds.
*Record your child’s voice and play it back to him or her.
