3. Place Velcro pieces on the file folder next to each question where the answer will go. Make sure
to use the opposite side of the Velcro from the ones you put on the pieces.

Speech and Language Activities
Answering Questions:
This game is great for children working on “When” questions. I recommend starting with the
“night” and “day” folder first because those time concepts are the easiest for little ones to grasp.
Point out a picture on the folder to your child and ask the question. Help your child find the cor-
rect answer based on his or her level:
Level 1: Show your child two possible answers and have him pick the right one and place it
next to the question.
Level 2: Show your child three or four possible answers (this only applies to the mixed “when”
questions where there are numerous choices. If you are using the “night and day” or
“summer and winter” games, just skip this step.
Level 3: Ask your child the question and allow her to see the picture (from the question) but
do not show her any of the possible answers. See if she can come up with it on her own.
When she does, hand her the answer and let her Velcro it on
Level 4: Ask your child the question without using any visuals (put the folder away). Do this
during conversation/play or while playing a structured game (such as, your child must an-
swer a question before each turn).
Once your child can answer all of the questions from the “night and day” game, move on to the
seasons one. Then, try the mixed “when” questions. While you’re doing this, keep talking about
how “when” means time. Explain that “time” can mean night vs. day, summer vs. winter, or any
other way to mark time. Once your child can do all of these questions, try asking other “when”
questions such as questions about holidays (when do we go trick-or-treating?) or specific time
questions (when do you get up in the morning).
Time Concepts:
This game has many great opportunities to talk about time concepts with your child. You can
talk about things that happen at night vs. during the day, or things that happen when it is cold or
hot outside. You can even get out a calendar or clock to show your child some of these con-
cepts on paper. If your child is struggling with time concepts, try putting up a calendar in your
child’s room and marking special events and activities on it. Then, you can look at daily to talk
about concepts like today, tomorrow, next week, past, future, etc.
Vocabulary:
There are many great vocabulary words in this game. You can work on them receptively (“point
to the shirt”) or expressively (“What’s this?”).
Spatial Concepts:
Use this game to work on concepts such as “next to” (put it next to the book) and “beside”.
Cause and Effect:
The mixed “when” questions focus heavily on cause and effect relationships. This is a great op-
portunity to explain to your child how one event can cause another. Talk about the causes of
things that you and your child do throughout the day, then talk about the causes of the actions
that are related to these questions as well.
