At every stage parents/carers and family members are the best people to help a child to develop their speech and language.
It can be fun too, with games and activities suitable for your young child.
This ‘pathway’ has resources for 3 stages:
Step 1: Help your child to talk
Step 2: I have a concern that my child needs extra support to communicate
Step 3: We’ve done all the activities in step 1 and 2, and I’m still worried about my child’s communication
Your child's communication may improve after step 1 or step 2. Only some children will need a referral to a speech and language therapist to help them to progress.
