Often it turns out that a session does not include enough new vocabulary without a special activity which has new vocabulary as its only aim. A collection of new objects can be added to the vocabulary: tree, broom, comb, mirror, a toy elephant, sink, toilet, flower, etc. Stick to words for the most basic objects of everyday experience, plus a few words that all four-year-olds know, like elephant (in some cultures). The four-year-old words are fun, and will come in handy when the GPs start using children's picture story books as a learning resource. They become part of the little world that the Nurturer and GPs are creating as they communicate about it.
