My favorite clothes: spots, stripes, pockets
We describe clothes with adjectives. A spotted shirt has dots. A striped scarf has lines. A plain jumper has one colour. Parts of clothes: a pocket, a sleeve, a button, a belt. We use has or have: My shirt has two pockets. Many clothes are traditional. A galabeya is long and loose, and it is often made of cotton. Nubian dresses are bright and colourful. In Japan people wear a kimono on special days. All traditional clothes are beautiful. We say a before a consonant sound, an before a vowel sound and some before more than one: a striped scarf, an old shirt, some blue socks.

Clothes detective. The grown-up thinks of a person in the room and describes their clothes: She wears a striped scarf and it has long sleeves. The child guesses who it is. Then change places.
