Sesame Street: Kermit and Elmo -- Loud and Quiet. Teach opposites to children using books and videos. Teaching Opposites with Books There are many books available that teach opposites. As with all books for toddlers, choose books that are simple, and have large, bright pictures and short sentences. When reading to your child, discuss what makes something an opposite. Some books that teach opposites are "Where is the Green Sheep? " by Mem Fox, "Opposites" by Sandra Boynton, and "The Foot Book" by Dr. Seuss. If you already have a library of books at home, choose a book or fairytale that includes examples of opposites - for example Goldilocks and the Three Bears - big, little, hard, soft, cold, and hot.
You can also choose to make your own books. Teaching Opposites with Videos There are lots of great teaching resources available through youtube.
