Novel verb act-out studies

[Misha Becker]

I don't know if this is the kind of study you're after, but there is a study
on French-acquiring children and novel verbs:

Bernal, S., Lidz, J., Millotte, S., and Christophe, A. (2007) Syntax
constrains the acquisition of verb meaning. Language Learning  and
Development, 3:325-342

Best,
Misha
