“Animal House”
Animal sounds are often easiest for children to make because they don’t have a lot of consonants. Children tend to produce the sound an animal makes before saying its actual name.
-

Produce the appropriate animal sounds as you point to the pictures.
Encourage your child to imitate the sound associated with the animal you point to.
