I do my best to incorporate "school" into everyday life. That way, the kids see it as totally normal. (Please don't tell them otherwise.) One thing we do is identify literary elements whenever possible.
The other night I was walking up the stairs with L to take her to bed. E had put several items on the steps to take up when she went to bed. As I stepped over E's items I said, "There is stuff on the steps." I paused and then asked, "What is that?"
D and L immediately responded "Alliteration!"
Well, E was close behind me coming up the steps and when she arrived she commented, "There is alliteration on the steps!"
