• Practise saying and writing this new sound
• Go on a scavenger hunt around your house or garden to find things that end with the sound 'ng' e.g, swing, ring. There probably wont be many so try and think of some others e.g wing, king etc. Take a picture of the things you find or draw these items/words.

Writing/Expressive Arts and Design

• Ask your child to sing their favourite nursery rhyme. 
• Can they draw a picture of the events from their favourite Nursery rhyme.

CHALLENGE: Ask your child to write out the words to a part of the song or the song title.

Listening

 Play ‘What’s that Sound?’

● Game 1- Hum a song to your child that they are likely to know. Can they guess which song it is from the tune alone? Take it in turns to hum out a tune.

● Game 2- Go into a room of the house while your child listens outside of the door. Make a sound or play a rhythm out on an item in the room e.g. tapping on the table. Open the door and ask your child to find what you used to make the sound.

Physical 

• Stretch and relax with some child-friendly yoga at: https://www.youtube.com/user/CosmicKidsYoga
