If your child needs more visual cues then here are some ideas you can do:
Scavenger hunt: Find three things that have wheels; Find 3 things in the bathroom, Find 3 foods that are crunchy.
Travel around the house: Go from room to room and as the child to find/name 3-5 things that belong there. For example in the kitchen you may get out fork, spoon, knife and explain that they belong in the kitchen and you use them to eat.
Google search: Search Google for images of various categories. This will give you lots of pictures of things that you may not have access to. Have your child name them to practice their vocabulary.
