After supper and my rather unsuccessful description of onomatopoeia, I turned to YouTube to search for a video that might help my children better comprehend what onomatopoeia is. Thats where I discovered this cute and short video about onomatopoeia. Ill warn you, the tune is sort of catchy (if youre a five-year-old)..

On an associated note, Next Vista for Learning hosts a fantastic video description of onomatopoeia. The video was produced by a high school student for among Next Vistas many trainee video development contests.

Every night my daughters (ages 4 and 5) ask us all kinds of interesting concerns. Some of them are about things that I havent thought about in a long time. Some of them arent easy to answer in a method that they can comprehend.
