⭐ Learning Extension

Connect game concepts to real-world experiences. After playing the shopping game, set up a pretend store with household items. After animal sounds, read a book about animals.

Praise effort rather than just correct answers. Use specific feedback like "I like how you kept trying" or "You're getting better at counting!"
