I often do this in the class with my younger students. I use toys, ask students to close their eyes, touch the toys and try to guess the animal in English. I usually measure the time so that we can find out who the winner is. That's the student who names all of the animals correctly for the shortest time.
The good thing about using this type of toys is that you can use it with different vocabulary like - food, fruit, vegetables, shapes, number, letters from the alphabet...... the choice is yours!

When you teach younger learners you simply must  use toys in your lessons. Not only they are very appealing to the students but they also keep the busy, make them think and make them learn new words. Different types of puzzles can be very useful for revision of vocabulary. I usually ask my students to solve the puzzle and name the object ( in this case - animals). I keep track of the time. The student who solves the puzzle first and names all the animals correctly is the winner.
