Hope you have read and enjoyed with your children our previous article on fun games.

Tongue twisters

We enjoyed tongue twisters a lot as children.

A tongue-twister is a phrase that is designed to be difficult to articulate properly, and can be used as a type of spoken word game. 

Additionally, they can be used as exercises to improve pronunciation and fluency.
