"All Things Bright and Beautiful"
Take a break and sing some songs, either using YouTube for assistance (you can use my Videos page for assistance for this) or sing them together as you do party of your families daily routine (chores, etc). Most of these videos would be better viewed for audio, rather than visual, as it will be easy for your child to become preoccupied with the animations.

Poetry
Read "As I Was Going to St. Ives" together.
As I was going to St. Ives,
I met a man with seven wives.
Every wife had seven sacks,
Every sack had seven cats,
Every cat had seven kits;
Kits, cats, sacks and wives,
How many were going to St. Ives?
Try memorizing it throughout the week.
*You will be surprised how quickly your child memorizes at this age, especially rhymes.
