Partially deflate beach-type balls to allow easier grasp for catching and tossing. Provide wagons with room for two children so that they can talk to each other. Interact with children and play games, such as I Spy with My Little Eye and Teacher May I? Set up two toy saddles outside so that children can sit as a pair and talk with each other. Provide other outdoor items that encourage language, such as a picnic table, a sandbox, a water table, gardening tools, and deflated balls. The top picture shows two saddles facing each other. The intent is that the environment is arranged to encourage dyads to communicate with one another.
