To continue developing English Language Arts skills related to this activity, parents can:
- Encourage their child to write a story or create a comic strip about a fictional water park adventure
- Read books or watch movies about water parks and discuss the similarities and differences to their own experience
- Play a game where the child has to give directions to navigate a pretend water park
- Practice using descriptive language by describing other experiences, such as a trip to the zoo or a birthday party
