Auditory sequencing of three-part language routinesDuring everyday activities and contrived play, explain to your child a language routine with three sequential actions. Then demonstrate with toys. Say the three parts again to reinforce auditory sequential memory. Your child listens and then creates the actions with the toys. Keep the length of the language for each part to about three or four words in length. When your child has gained confidence in the process, encourage him/her to perform the actions by listening without a visual demonstration.
