"hot dog,"
"ham" and ...
"hot bar."
To practice phrases, ask your child what toppings she likes with her hot dogs. Targets may include, "Hot dogs with ketchup" or "Fries with hot dogs."
To practice sentences, walk around the hot bar area and ask her what she smells. Answers should be in sentence form, using the word "hot" or "hot bar." It's all right to directly instruct your child to do so. Targets may include, "I smell hot wings," and "I smell soup at the hot bar." You may keep this task going by continuing to ask, "What else do you smell?" The sentence structure may stay the same, "I smell _____."
To practice sentences, ask her what other foods she thinks Giant Eagle should sell at the hot bar. Answers may include, "I think they should sell tacos at the hot bar. And more soups at the hot bar. I also want hamburgers." For older children, a conversation task may include looking at the different hot dogs or hams and discussing which are the best values.
/h/ is another fun sound to make. Cue your child to sigh, or laugh with a "ha." Make sure to highlight that the mouth is all the way open. You can even make a game out of it by seeing how wide you can open your mouths (or how loud you can say "ha"). For more specific instruction, tell your child to take a deep breath, then let the air out. Have her hold her hand in front of her mouth to feel the air. Show her on yourself, and let her feel your breath as you exhale.
