1 Introduction of the venue

This song features Mickey and his friends happily discussing what to bring on their picnic and what they want to do on it.

In the song,
I will bring some sandwiches.
I will take my kite.
And so on.Using the auxiliary verb "will" to express "I intend to take ~" or "I intend to do ~" This future expression appears repeatedly.

We recommend using this expression "will" when you're going out or getting ready, even at home.
for example,

  • I'll take my bag!(I'll bring a bag!)
  • I'll bring your hat!(I'll bring a hat too!)

By saying this to your child as if you were giving them a short live commentary, they will naturally begin to associate what they thought were "song phrases" with "words they would use in real life."

This song is filled with the excitement of enjoying a picnic and the expression of the future, "will."

2 Learn grammar

🌸Recruitment Expression: Let's🌸

Example 1) Let's go on a picnic.

🌸auxiliary verb will🌸

Example sentence 2) I'll bring hot dogs.

🌸Interrogative word How🌸

3) How will we get there?

(Quoted from DWE's "Sing Along!")

3 Column -Let's start "Let's try it!"-

Here is the key phrase of this song:

Solicitation Expressions Let's ~:Let's go on a picnic.
auxiliary verb will:I'll bring hot dogs.
interrogative word how:How will we get there?

🌼 Easy ways to use the invitation expression "Let's..."

"Let's" is a contraction of "Let us," which means "Let's do this!" and is a suggestion or invitation.

There is almost no nuance of "command."

Type:Let's + base form of verb
example:Let's go on a picnic!

DWE Example

  • Let's sing “Happy Birthday” to Pluto. 📙Book 3, p.40
  • Let's eat a lot! 📙Book 4, p.3
  • Let's count them. 📙Book 4, p.28

💡Polite alternative: "Shall we ~?"
Shall we go on a picnic?

🌼 How to use the auxiliary verb "will"

“"Will" expresses future plans/intentions.

example:I'll bring hot dogs.

DWE Example

  • Will Minnie catch the ball? 📙Book 6, p.37

Examples of live broadcasts from home:
I'll pack your lunch. / I'll bring a blanket.

🌼 How to use the interrogative word "How"

“"How" is an interrogative word that asks about the method or degree.
In this song How will we get there?(How do I get there?)

DWE ExampleHow old are you? 📙Book 3, p.39

  • How deep is the water? 📙Book 5, p.15
  • How do you get inside the shed? 📙Book 11, p.19

🌼 summary

  • Let's ~: Expressions to invite someone to have fun (📙B3 p.40 / B4 p.3, p.28)
  • will: Future intentions and plans (📙B6 p.37)
  • how: Asking about the method and degree (📙B3 p.39 / B5 p.15 / B11 p.19)

Once you understand this, you'll be able to smoothly use expressions to talk about future plans, invite someone, and ask about transportation! 🎒🌞🚗

✅ Talking to your child at their level (Non-chan)

"Let's go on a picnic" The best way to incorporate this is to play picnic!
""Let's..." is easy to use when calling out,Invitation → Role allocation → ActionIt's a versatile phrase that connects the two in one breath. Use "Let's..." at home and get used to saying English phrases, too!

Beginner (Blue to early Green): One fixed phrase: "Successful experience at a picnic"“

Props: plates, cups, stuffed animals, cloth (to use as a blanket)

  1. sign:Let's go on a picnic!
  2. role:I'll bring the cups. You bring the plates.
  3. arrival:Let's sit. Let's eat!


Let's make sandwiches!I'll cut. You'll put.Let's eat! Yum!

Intermediate (late blue to green): Variations based on means and items

A word to start:Let's go by car? / by bus?
What to bring:I'll bring fruit. You'll bring a bottle of water.
Commentary:We're packing. The basket is heavy!
Expanding with questions:Where shall we sit? Under the tree?
*The combination of "Let's + will"The process is naturally translated into EnglishI will.

Advanced (late green to lime): Introduction of questions, comparisons, and conditions

Introductory questions:How should we go?(How should I get there?)
Reasoning:Let's go by bike because it's sunny.
Conditioning:If it's windy, let's bring jackets.
Role Switching:Now you be the leader. What should we bring?
※“How/because/If”In pretend playLet them experience it effortlessly.

Collection of concrete phrases (stick them on and use them!)

  • Let's spread the blanket.
  • Let's share. One for me, one for you.
  • Let's clean up. I'll take the trash.
  • Let's make a list. I'll write. You tell me.
  • Let's check the weather. Is it sunny or cloudy? 

How to proceed when you're unsure (Besty's small steps)

  1. 1Scene =1fixed form(Every departure Let's go!)
  2. Microiterations(10-20 seconds, 2-3 times a day)
  3. Immediate praise(Yes, let's! / Great idea! / You did it!)

Pretend play ideas

  • Picnic at home: Spread out a towel instead of a picnic blanketLet's spread it!
  • Preparation Race:Let's pack fast!Ready? Go!
  • Pretend Shopping:Let's buy apples. How many?Let's pay.

One step further: 3D outside the home“

At the entrance:Let's go! I'll bring your hat.
Along the way:How will we get there?/Let's go through the park.
After returning home:Let's talk about our picnic. What did we eat?

💭 A word from the blog administrator
Non-chan's "Let's use it by level" was very practical!
It was clear that the flow of "2D (songs and pictures) → 3D (experience) → words" that Besty values flowed naturally and comfortably during the pretend picnic.
especially,Let's (proposal) → will (role declaration) → actionThis flow is a golden pattern that allows you to accumulate successful experiences with English even in a short amount of time.
Try inserting it into your play today and increase the number of "Let's try it!" moments between parents and children!
