Badger Makes Animal Sounds








Watch this video first.




By Justine C. Tajonera



We really love playing this game with Badger: what sound does this animal make? It engages him in learning what animal is what (based on their images), what sounds they make, what nursery rhymes have these animals and what the first letter of the animal word is.

It's a lot of fun and it's a great way of teaching him and figuring out how he interprets things. We especially love his "meow!" because we know that he observes the cats in my Dad's house and he really gets into the role play of being a cat!

Playing the game of making animal sounds:
  • Helps Badger identify animal images (he has to know what the animal is before he can make the sound). 
  • Helps him role play
  • Makes it easier for him to identify the letters in the animal names
  • Engages him in different aspects of learning about animals
  • Expands his vocabulary and makes him curious about other animals and animal sounds
