3 & 4-year-olds: Communication and Language • I like listening to longer stories and I can remember a lot of what happens. • If I am really busy in my play, I can find it difficult to switch my attention and listen to what you say to me. It helps me if you use my name and say: “Please stop and listen.” • I can use lots of different words. I like to learn new words. • It helps me if you explain what new words mean. • I can understand questions and instructions that are more complicated and have two parts, like: “Please get your coat and wait at the door.” • When you ask me questions about why something happened, I understand, e.g. “Why do you think the caterpillar got so big?”
