Many families gather with friends or other relatives on the
4th of July. Your preschooler is likely to enjoy the get-togethers
and traditions, which may include watching fireworks and grilling a meal. Holidays
and other family times are important to him. Encourage him to talk about and
describe what he experiences. Better yet, have him dictate his impressions
while you record them and perhaps suggest that he draw pictures of the festivities. Encourage him to recall the sounds, sights,
and tastes—the boom, boom, boom of the
fireworks, the bright and fleeting explosions of colors in the sky, the cold
and creamy ice cream treat. You are helping your young child find the words to
describe the exciting world he inhabits.
