  • The Language Through Play series looks at early language skills and how to introduce these concepts through play with speech and language therapy techniques. Whilst designed by a highly specialist Speech and Language Therapist, these videos do not replace individualised speech therapy. It utilises a variety of games, tools, and resources to build upon language giving you techniques to try with your child outside of the videos.

    These videos are best watched in order as they build upon language skills as the videos progress.
