First Words Every Day Cards for Toddlers | Printable Naming, Pointing and Turn Taking Talk Games, Large Print, 11 Months+

“A cup! That's your cup.” That is the line on the first card in this set of twelve small talk games for the day you already have.

Each card fits into something you do anyway: saying a name twice, stopping before the end of a line you both know, pointing across the room, giving the car its vroom, adding one more word, knocking before you come in. Every card has one idea, one line to say in big type, and a safety line wherever the idea needs one. Each card shows the age it starts from.

Cards are 3.65 × 4.65 in before you trim the margin. Print at 100% on card stock and cut on the dashed lines. Nothing ships; this is a digital download. No web address or QR code appears on the cards.

Safety: the cards that use a basket of things or a ball carry the object line. A grown-up stays within reach, and every object is checked to be too big to fit in a mouth. The fridge card says to use tape, not small magnets.

These are play ideas for a grown-up and a child, together. Nothing here is a test, and it makes no promise about any result.
