Notching words will not help. Just take it for granted. Remember how they taught themselves verses: if you memorize mechanically, immediately after the lesson from the verse in your head there will be no rhyme left. It is best to develop a child's vocabulary during the game. In such verbal games you can play anywhere: on the way to a kindergarten, to school, to a store, in transport, for a walk. As soon as you notice that the kid's attention began to switch to extraneous objects, stop the game. Continue the next time. It should be fun. And we will offer you several options for such lexical fun.
