The ability to communicate effectively through speaking and listening is essential for a child and builds a strong foundation for successful learning.

SPEAK provides lots of fun, free activities, ideas and information for parents, carers and educators to support and nurture language development in children from 0-6 years of age. There are multiple activities within each age group to help boost your child’s speaking and listening ability.

The information and activities were developed by the Department of Education and Training with the help of speech pathologists, educators and health professionals.

SPEAK is for everyone who wants the best start in life for their child and provides a fun, convenient way to make chatter matter!
