Role play: Have one of the children play the role of a salesman, a few little ones in the family of clients, and the other children to any chosen pets. Encourage preschoolers to role-play. Example, the child client can pull on papa's sleeve and call out: Please, Dad, we have to buy a dog, to have someone to walk with!”. The other child may be emotional and talking: "No, I want a parrot. I'll teach her to speak”. The cat can approach the customers, purr and rub his head against mom's leg, and the dog can sit down and ask. When all the roles have been rehearsed, let the children play the role-play.
Group classes: Talk about pets and that, how to look after them.
Music: Sing a song about pets, for example, "Tinned crumbs”.
