🏃 Action Words: first English words for toddlers
Jump! Run! Swim! Dance! This lesson gets little bodies moving: nine everyday action words, each acted out by an animal friend from earlier episodes — the jumping cat, the running dog, the swimming duck.
Verbs are where first words become first sentences. Do the actions together as you watch — jump when the cat jumps, clap when the frog claps — and the words will stick twice as fast. A calm lullaby recap winds everything down at the end.
