How to teach kids English at home!
Many parents would like to

teach their children English at home, but don’t know how to start. It doesn’t matter if your own English is not perfect. The most important thing is that you are enthusiastic and that you give your children lots of encouragement and praise.
>Establishing a routine
Establish a routine for your “English time” at home. It is better to have short, frequent sessions than long, infrequent ones. Fifteen minutes is enough for very young children.

>Playing games
Children learn naturally when they are having fun. Flashcards are a great way to teach and revise vocabulary.
There are many other types of games you can play with your children to help them practice English.

>Using everyday situations
The advantage of teaching English at home is that you can use everyday situations and real objects from around the house to practice the language naturally and in context.
For example: food, clothes, toys, etc....

>Using stories
Younger children love books with bright colors and attractive illustrations. Look at the pictures together and say the words as you point to the pictures.

>Using songs
Songs are a really effective way to learn new words and improve pronunciation, especially songs with actions.

Which words and phrases should I teach first?
Consider your child’s interests and personality when deciding which topics to teach, and let your child help you to choose. You may like to start with some of these topics:
* numbers (1–10; 10–20; 20–100)
* colors
* adjectives (e.g. big, small, tall, happy, sad, tired)
* the body
* toys
* clothes
* animals (e.g. pets, farm animals, wild animals)
* food
Most importantly.....HAVE FUN!!

    Thank you for your good information. Many Japanese parents want their children to learn English. Many children go to English class. But Not many families use English at home.

    I think we need patient as well, whenever my ears bombarded with questions from my daughter in her curiosity to English ,i told myself to be patient on her questions though i probably can't answer all of them.
