Holiday Gift Ideas to Encourage Speech and Language Development

Even though we live in a very technologically advanced age, sometimes it’s those simple toys that really encourage language, social interaction and imagination! Think about these types of gifts when buying for your little loved ones this holiday season:

· Blocks and Legos

· Books

· Farms, castles, dollhouses

· Dolls and action figures

· Dress up clothes (princess, police officer, etc.)

· Children’s music – Raffi, Greg and Steve, etc.

· Play Doh or modeling clay

· Art supplies

· Board games – Candyland, Chutes and Ladders, Don’t Spill the Beans, Memory, Guess Who?,

Best wishes for a joyous holiday season! May you have the most wonderful time playing and talking with your child during our break from school!
