      Why It Works

      The learning connection

      Repeating tongue twisters relies on embodied cognition, as children physically engage their mouths and tongues in forming sounds. This kinesthetic involvement enhances memory retention and articulation skills, transforming speech into a playful challenge.

      Extend the Lesson

      Try it with your learner

      1. Choose 3 tongue twisters, like 'She sells seashells'. 2. Say each one slowly 3 times to master the sounds. 3. Now, speed up and repeat each 5 times! 4. Record yourself saying them and listen to your pronunciation. 5. Challenge a family member to say them with you. 6. Rate each other's performances — who did the best?
