The role of play in fostering early language development

The role of play in fostering early language development: How playful activities support children's speech, language and communication.

 

 

This webinar with Speech and Language expert Chloe Storr will explore how playful activities support children's speech, language and communication skills.

How play can help:

 

• Supporting the development of key skills such as listening, attention, turn taking and understanding through playful activities.

• Providing/sharing language rich experiences that expose children to new vocabulary.

• Working collaboratively with parents to create a language rich home learning environment.

• Suggesting words that can be used to during each activity and build upon these to encourage the natural development of language.
