Speech, language, and communication are significant areas of development for children.
They play a vital role throughout our lives, helping us to understand what is going on around us day-to-day and express our feelings and emotions, and basic needs.
They also help us to develop our relationships with others, having conversations with our family and friends; to think, learn and problem solve, and so much more.
