4 mins 2 mins 4 mins 2 mins

1. INTRODUCTION
First, describe to your child what you are going to do. For example, say “We are going to
play with toys and bubbles!”

2. PLAY WITH TOY SET 1

Start by looking through the toys. Then take out a few toys that your child may typically
4 mins play with and enjoy. Play naturally with your child. Encourage them to play with at least
2 toys. You can follow what your child is doing (imitate their play), comment, and show
excitement. Please try to limit the number of prompts, instructions, and questions you use
while playing with your child. Here are a few play ideas:
• Put the shapes in the shape sorter
• Drive the cars and/or fly the rocket
• Take turns on the pop-up
If your child gets upset when you clean up, remind them that you will be playing with
more toys next.

3. PLAY WITH BUBBLES

Encourage your child to stand when you bring out the bubble gun. You may move around
2 mins the room and play naturally with your child.

4. PLAY WITH TOY SET 2

Tell your child that you have more toys! Look through the toys and then take a few out
4 mins that you think your child may typically play with and enjoy. Play together until it is time
to clean up. Here are a few play ideas:
• Build a tower with the blocks
• Roll the ball back and forth
• Use the tools to fix the dump trick

5. PLAY WITH BUBBLES

Just like the first time, play with the bubbles while standing up!
