Suitable for use either at school or at home, the activities can be dipped into in any order, and are organised by level of ability, with something for everyone.

This will be a useful resource for teachers, occupational therapists, and other professionals who work with children with delayed communication skills, as well as parents and carers who would like to support their child's speech and language development at home.
