- Once the child can do beginning and ending sounds, you could play the game using just ending sounds. One way to do this would be to use a collection of objects that all have the same beginning sound.
Material
The small objects used in this activity are also used in other several other language activities. It can be nice to have a large collection of these and then swap them out from time to time.
Doll-house furniture works great for these. Toys and other objects from around the house can also be used.
Make Your Own
One way to make the objects is to sculpt them out of clay and then paint them:
