Each card starts as a still picture so a grown-up can ask what the character is doing. Tap Watch it! to play one short, silent action when an added visual cue would help. Tap Hear it for the spoken model. Nothing starts by itself. Children can point, gesture, sign, use AAC, make a sound, or say the word. There is no timer, penalty, or automatic speech score.
Begin with the action word, such as “running.” The next level adds the agent and action: “The dog is running.” The expanded level adds one pictured detail: “The dog is running across the grass.” Use the Now, Before, and Next choices to model “is running,” “ran,” and “will run.” A grown-up can model the language, pause, wait, and expand any response without requiring imitation.
Little Words Editorial created and maintains the vocabulary, prompts, owned narration, and interaction. The motion artwork is AI-assisted. Every clip is checked for action clarity, stable characters, object continuity, safe child-friendly content, and reliable playback. This activity supports vocabulary practice. It does not listen to, judge, diagnose, or replace care from a speech-language pathologist. Read our editorial standards and clinical limits.
