So, this is your passport to travel around the  world. And do you want to do it, too? Yep. I'm going to do it with you. All right. So, where  should we go first? Which country should we travel to? Please turn on the subtitles down below  if you would like them. If we want our babies to want to speak English, to speak to us in English  freely, we have to do it playfully. Play is the language of children. And so if we want them to  do something, if we want them to speak English, we need to speak their language, which is play.  I'm so sorry for this giant mess. I am sitting here on my living room floor in my pajamas. I put  this screen behind me to try to hide some of my mess, my family's mess behind me, but I didn't do  a great job. You can still see a little bit here.

I could either clean my home or I could make  a video. Children learn through play. And so that means if your child is an absolute beginner,  your child does not really speak much English or understand much English yet, you can still  do really fun new activities. You can call this English playtime and you can just repeat one  word, two-word phrases again and again and again in a very playful way as you're doing something  cool and interesting that your child loves that your child is really interested in. You can  introduce fun and unique activities and use that to interest your child in learning English  and using English. They need to have a reason to use English. And for children, play is the perfect  reason. In this video, I'm going to share a really fun playtime activity that you can use with your  child starting from really young, maybe even 18 months or 2 years old. This is just one of many,  many English activities that I have available for my members. You can learn more about that. I'll  put a link down below. You can also get the free PDF guide and natural phrase script to use with  your child as you do this activity. I will put that PDF under this video, too. You are going  to see three things in this video. Number one, you are going to see me explain or tell you how  to do this activity. It's very, very easy. It's very simple. It takes like one minute to set  up, but it's so much fun and kids love it. two, you are going to see me saying the natural phrases  that I use with my son. So, you can listen to those natural phrases and then repeat after me to  practice the natural phrases and the vocabulary to use with your child during this activity. And  then finally, number three, you are going to watch me and my son playing this activity,  doing this activity together in real life.

We're making little passports. Uh, so I made this  really simple passport for my son. It took me 10 seconds to make this. Just folding a piece  of paper. I just folded a piece of paper like this. And inside it has a really messy little  grid. So, nothing fancy, nothing complicated here. And then I tell my son he's going to travel  around the world and get little different stamps in his passport. And at different stations  around our home, those represent different countries or different places. You can make  this as simple or as complicated as you want.

The easiest and simplest way to play this  game is to put a different color marker, different color crayon in five or six different  places in your house or to put stickers or a different color sticker in five or six different  places in your house and that's it. Your child goes to each place, each country and finds the  sticker and puts the sticker in their passport.

Or maybe you have stamps. You might also like  to use a little stamp like this. And they can stamp their passport in every place in your  home. They can travel the world in inside your home and get their passport stamped or get  a sticker in their passport or simply get a little smiley face drawing or a little check  mark or a little X in their passport. If you would like to make this a little bit more complex  or maybe a little bit more fun for older kids, you could have an activity for them to do at every  different station, at every different country.

So maybe they visit the table country. They go  to the table and they practice their letter K.

They practice writing letter K or they practice  coloring a letter K. And when they're finished, they get a little stamp in their passport or  they get a little check in their passport. And then they take their passport and they go to  the next station and there's another activity for them to do there. And when they're finished,  they get a stamp or a sticker or a check mark.

Are you ready to travel around the world? Are you  ready to travel? Okay, you're going to need your passport. You need your passport to travel around  the world.
