Children can play in different ways and in different places. Playing with your child gives you time together. You can both benefit from the shared play experiences, strengthening the bond between parent and child. Use low-cost and no cost ideas to encourage your child's imagination and creativity when they play.

Making playthings from household items

Look around your home and in your garage to find:

You can adapt these things for activities and games.

Bubble socks

To make bubble socks:

cut a plastic bottle in half

cover it with a sock

dip in soapy water

blow through the end of the bottle

Bubbles will appear on the sock toes.

Build a den

Ask your children to help you get:

Use these to build a den. It's a new space for eating outdoors and staying out of the sun.

Ice finds

Fill a basin or large plastic box with water. Drop in some toy farm animals, dinosaurs and plastic pockets. Freeze overnight. Empty onto a kitchen tray, sand or water pit. Give your children small kitchen utensils to break the ice and find things in the ice.

Water painting

Give your child a paintbrush and a bucket of water. Let them paint outside walls, fences, gates, drainpipes and pavements with water.

Drawing with chalk

You can buy cheap, chunky walks in bargain shops. Your child will enjoy chalking pavements, the driveway, walls, fences or bricks. They'll also like watching rain wash away their writing.

Drawing outdoors

Take wallpaper rolls, cardboard panels or sheets outdoors along with felt tip pens, crayons and paint. Roll out the paper or spread the sheet and let your child draw and paint.

Scavenger hunt

Suggest your children explore your garden, neighbourhood or the beach to see what treasures from nature they'll find. For example, they could find shells, pebbles, driftwood and seaweed on the beach.

Climb a tree

Encourage each child to climb a tree. Ask them to describe what they see.

Teddy bears' picnic

Children like eating outdoors. Spread a picnic blanket or a mat in the garden. Lay out plastic cups and plates for food. Tell your children to bring their cuddly toys to the picnic.

Getting hands dirty

Fill a container with soil or go to an area in the garden. Put in yoghurt pots, cars, toy animals, spoons, small stones and twigs. Let your children use their hands to dig in the soil. Add water and create mud. The children can make mud pies.

Dressing up

Use a cardboard box or suitcase to gather dressing up props such as:

Encourage each child to dress up and become a character.

Hopscotch and Xs and Os

You can use chalk or a stone to draw:

a large grid for playing Xs and Os on the ground or on the wall

hopscotch on the ground

Show the children how to play.

Chill out den

Allow your children to bring their friends into the den you built. Make a place to sit with carpet squares, a sheet or rug, or two crates and a wooden plank. Put cards, dominos, marbles or a football in the den. Add some music to create a relaxing space.

Traditional games and activities

Make sure your children know how to play traditional games and activities you and your grandparents enjoyed including:

skipping

two ball

jacks

German jumps

kerbside

tag

hide and seek

Simon says

duck duck goose

egg and spoon

blind man's bluff

kick the can

stick in the mud

piggy in the middle

Is scéim meantóireachta é Cara Teanga Tí chun deiseanna teagmhála agus idirphlé a chur ar fáil do thuismitheoirí atá ag tógáil páistí le Gaeilge.

Tríd an scéim, beidh deis ag tuismitheoirí atá ag tógail clainne le Gaeilge, nó iad siúd atá ag smaoineamh faoi, cinneadh s'acu agus ceisteanna eile a phlé le tuismitheoir eile a rinne an cinneadh céanna cheana féin.

Tabharfaidh an scéim deis do thuismitheoirí a bheith ag líonrú le chéile i mbealach praiticiúil agus straitéiseach. Cuirfear an tseirbhís seo ar fáil saor in aisce, tuismitheoir go tuismitheoir.

Más mian leat páirt a ghlacadh, déan gliogáil ar an gcnaipe, agus líon amach an fhoirm le do thoil!

There are three major dialects of Irish: Ulster Irish, Connaught Irish and Munster Irish. Although they share many grammatical features there are notable differences too. The most striking difference is the pronunciation. It's immediately clear which dialect we're dealing with as soon as a native speaker starts to speak. There is no such thing as a received pronunciation in Irish - although there is a written standard.

Thus, when developing a synthesiser for Irish a voice for each one of the (major) dialects has to be created. So far we have three voices: Gweedore (Ulster), Ráth Chairn (Connaught) and the Dingle Peninsula (Munster).

We intend to provide more voices, especially voices for the various sub-dialects (e.g. Mayo Irish or Waterford Irish). We strongly encourage native speakers of any of the major dialects or any of the sub-dialects to contact us.

There are three methods of speech synthesis on this page: HTS, DNN agus Unit Selection. All methods have their own strengths and drawbacks. Here's a short guide.

HTS

A fast synthesis system that is suitable for real time systems. HTS voices are stable and easy to understand although they don't sound quite as natural as the DNN voices.

DNN

This method of synthesis is based on Deep Neural Networks. These voices sound very natural but they take a bit longer to synthesize sentences. They are suitable for education, announcements and newspapers.

Unit Selection

Unit Selection was the first synthesis system we developed. It's well suited for short phrases but the quality of the output depends on the input. We are currently not planning to develop this type of synthesis for new voices. It's only available for Ulster and Connaught Irish.

ABAIR is a project of the Phonetics and Speech Laboratory, Trinity College, Dublin. ABAIR develops synthetic voices and speech recognitions systems for Irish.

Speech Synthesis

There are a lot of use cases for text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis. It is used in public places, e.g. for announcements at train stations or aiports. TTS synthesis is extremely important for the visually impaired, because it enables them to use computers or smart phones. The amount of teaching material that incorporates TTS synthesis is constantly increasing too.

People also like to use TTS synthesis to have newspaper articles read out to them while they are driving or jogging. In fact, TTS synthesis is a must for any language these days. More information.

Speech Recognition

Speech recognition enables us to interact with computers by simply "talking" to them, e.g. when you tell your GPS where to go or when you ask your smart phone for the weather forecast. There's an increasing demand for a speech recognition system for Irish, and ABAIR is currently developing one. More information.
