Following the emergence of constructivist school of thought and the resulting social view, the humanistic principles began to permeate and influence the field of second language teaching and learning (Khatib & Najafi, 2013). Considering humanistic psychology, the receiver in education is considered first a human being, and then a learner. Therefore, in a relaxing environment with less stress and more social interaction, specially with a teacher in a parental role, the learner is supposed to learn better, which leads to introduction of Suggestopedia. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to uncover the effect of infantilization aids on Iranian EFL learners oral interaction in Pishghaman institute, Miyandoab. In this study, the researcher used quantitative method. To conduct the present study, thirty female EFL learners, at elementary level with the age range of 9-11 and with a bilingual background, i.e Turkish and Persian were involved.
