Object to picture matching

Set of picture cards representing everyday objects.

Objects to match the things on the cards.

For the picture cards, you could use photos, or create using symbols

1. Start with the child's most familiar/favoured objects. Choose 2 and the two matching pictures. Match the object to the picture and say 'Look........sock/pen/flower it's the same'

2. Can the child put the object on a picture given 2 pictures and 2 objects.

3. Reward any success.

4. Start to increase the number of objects and pictures to 3 then 4 but go slowly.
