That’s why Victoria, the youth leader of «Window on America» in Kherson, prefers choosing them for the English language club for children 6-10 years old. On Sunday, December 15, the visitors repeated the words of the topic «My home. My Room». They also learned new ones. They draw their dream house together and called all the rooms and objects in English. An episode from «Peppa Pig», animated television series, also helped to remind the words of the mentioned topic and to prepare children for learning a foreign language.
