I �ve found that it �s really about repetition. Show them the object or a picture and have them say the name. Repeat... many, many times over many many days and weeks. Make up different games using the pictures. It �s really about getting the word into their long term memory. After they have the vocabulary, then you can start adding the words to a sentence. For example, "Banana. I like to eat a banana." Or "Cucumber. I do not like cucumber." or "Car. The car is blue." Etc. Cheers! -Dar
