When you are at your child’s level, it makes it easier to play copycat games together.
Watch how mum gets down to her daughter's eye level to play games with her.
How getting down to your child's level helps them learn
It helps your child to:
- See what you are doing or looking at
- Hear your words and sentences more clearly
- Show you what they are interested in
- See clues to communicate and understand what is being said, as they watch lip movements, eyes, and facial expressions
Copycat games are not only great fun, by getting down to your child's level and copying one another, you're showing them that their actions, words and sounds are important.
