Take the test! Ask a 3 year old child: what is a mistletoe branch, reindeer, a gingerbread man, a Christmas stocking, a crown, a cane, a sled, an angel … They’re likely to give you the wrong answer. We can imagine that there are several ideas that he doesn’t understand when he listens to a Christmas story.
The holiday season is a great opportunity to work with a lot of new ideas! I suggest you start immediately to expose children to this vocabulary. When you are too busy with the festivities, you’ll already have had the chance to introduce your child to these concepts.
