"B" The Bouncing Sound

The Bouncing Sound

"B" is the Bouncing Sound



This month we are going to be working on the "B" sound or the bouncing sound.  We have practiced saying the "B" sound while moving our arms like bouncing a ball, while moving our knees bouncing up and down and while jumping up and down.  

We have talked about different objects that start with the "B" sound and practiced saying them.  We are going to play some games this month that help us practice saying the "B" sound in words and phrases.  We are also going to sing some songs with the "B" sound in them like, Baby Blowing Bubbles ,  Bringing Home a Baby Bumblebee and Bouncy Bouncy Bouncy. 

Some activities you can do at home that will give your child many opportunities to practice using the "b" sound are:
-Play with stuffed animals or dolls and have your child say "bye" to each animal or baby.
-Set up a play store by finding objects around home you can "sell".  Ask your child to shop by saying "buy" for each item he or she chooses.
-Roll or toss a ball to your child.  Have him or her say "ball" as they catch it and again as they toss it or roll it back.
-Play toy cars or trucks with your child.  Encourage him or her to say "beep" every time your vehicle gets in the way of his or her car or truck.
-Read the story Goldilocks and The Three Bears or read the book The Wheels on the Bus.  While you are reading talk about what you see, ask your child what he or she thinks will happen as they look at the pictures.  Name the things you see in the pictures emphasizing the "b" sound.
