Who are your favourite story characters?
Can you read some of the things that the characters are saying in the different books using different voices?
Have a go at practising lines from stories and use different voices.
The Chatterpix App is another fun way to explore the voices of characters:
Here is a fun way to make your favourite book characters talk: you could always take a picture of your favourite toy and then get them to read a line of your favourite book or get one of your toys to practice sound talking!
Here is what you do:
Press take a photo and then either take your picture or upload one you have previously taken. Press next and then draw a mouth on your picture and press the record button and record what you want your character to say and then press stop (you can do up to 30 seconds). Press next and add any frames you want or filters and then press next. Then press save.
Here are some examples:
Draw a mouth and then press record and then press save!
Another Challenge
Make a sentence out of words that your child can read independently and practise reading it in different voices.
Why not try:
There are dozens of different voices you could have fun using and it also helps your child to practice blending their sounds together to read.
